Description
A laparoscopic L hook spatula is a surgical instrument that can grasp, manipulate, and dissect tissues and structures. It’s a fundamental part of laparoscopic instrument sets.
The spatula and hook are the main electrodes used for monopolar cutting and coagulation.
The hook or spatula can be used to mark out and coagulate a line for division. The heel of the hook is used with the HF current set to soft coagulation. Short bursts are applied and the hook moved along to create a “dotted” line of coagulated tissue.
The L hook spatula is a valuable tool for skilled surgeons, aiding in the success of minimally invasive surgical procedures.
