Crile-Rankin Hemostatic Forceps — 160 mm (16 cm), Pattern 92

Fizza Surgical supplies the Crile-Rankin Hemostatic Forceps — 160 mm (16 cm), Pattern 92 (Ref HF 04-92-03) as a standard catalogue line to hospitals and distributors.

Where Halsted-Mosquito handles the finest bleeders, Crile hemostatic forceps step up one tier — medium-calibre vessels and tissue clamping during routine dissection. George Washington Crile, founder of the Cleveland Clinic in 1921, developed the pattern as a workhorse general-surgery clamp. The 14 cm and 16 cm lengths cover bowel resection, appendectomy, thyroidectomy, and the bulk of routine hemostasis. Crile forceps are fully serrated like Halsted-Mosquito but heavier, with wider jaws for slightly larger vessels. Many general-surgery trays include four Criles (two straight, two curved) alongside two Halsted-Mosquito pairs and a Kelly for graduated vessel-size coverage.

Fizza Surgical International has manufactured surgical instruments at its Sialkot, Pakistan facility since 1980 — more than four decades of continuous operation under one family ownership. The factory holds ISO 13485:2016 certification for medical devices and CE marking under EU MDR 2017/745, the regulatory baseline European hospitals and distributors require. FDA establishment registration covers exports to the United States.
