Castroviejo curved, serrated jaws Needle holders

Ramón Castroviejo y Briones, a Spanish-American ophthalmic surgeon in New York from the 1920s onward, pioneered modern corneal transplantation. His name attaches to a family of microsurgical instruments — Castroviejo needle holders, scissors, and forceps — distinguished by spring-action handles (no finger rings), fine tips, and overall lengths optimized for the surgeon working under microscope. Castroviejo scissors are used in corneal and conjunctival cuts, microvascular anastomosis, and nerve repair. Tungsten carbide tips are standard in professional-grade variants. Lengths of 9 cm, 10 cm, and 11 cm cover ophthalmic, plastic, and microsurgical applications. The squeeze-to-cut handle permits much finer control than scissor finger-rings during microsurgery.

Castroviejo curved, serrated jaws Needle holders — manufactured under reference NH 10-465-02 TC. A curved working tip lets the surgeon work behind tissue planes and around vascular structures without obstructing the view. Fine longitudinal serrations provide reliable grip on tissue and gauze without excess crush pressure.
