  • Abdominal aortic clamp
    Patent number: 5133724
    Abstract: A vascular clamp for temporary occlusion in the infrarenal region of the abdominal aorta during performance of surgery associated with abdominal aneurysms. Pivoted handles are operatively connected to respective one ends of relatively slidable elongate members, and parallel jaws laterally extend from the other ends. Manipulating the handles in scissors-like motion causes the jaws to translate between open and close positions. A ratchet-and-tooth arrangement interengages the handles as the jaws close.
