Finochietto Needle Holder 270mm (27cm)

Finochietto Needle Holder 270mm (27cm) · SKU NH 10-180-01 — manufactured to ISO 13485:2016.

The needle holder is the surgeon’s link to the suture — and the choice of pattern affects the speed, precision, and outcome of wound closure. The Mayo-Hegar pattern dominates general surgery; the Olsen-Hegar combines holder and suture-cutter; the Mathieu adds a squeeze-action ratchet for single-handed use; the Castroviejo covers microsurgery. The defining performance variable is the jaw surface: fine cross-hatching grips the needle without rotation under torque. Tungsten-carbide insert variants — TC needle holders — extend service life ten-fold versus plain stainless tips that dull within hundreds of autoclave cycles. Fizza’s full needle-holder catalogue covers lengths from 13 cm (paediatric/dental) to 26 cm (deep pelvic and cardiac) in both stainless and TC variants.

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.
