Stryker 502-880-211 Rigid Optical Grasping Forceps 0 Degree, 12 Degree

Stryker Rigid Optical Grasping Forceps | 5Fr / 7Fr Compatible | 502-880-211 | Reusable

The Stryker 502-880-211 is a high-precision rigid endoscopic instrument designed for the secure grasping and retrieval of foreign bodies, calculi, or tissue fragments within the bladder and urethral tract. Engineered for seamless integration with 0° and 12° rigid cystoscopes, these optical forceps allow the surgeon to maintain high-definition visualization while performing delicate mechanical maneuvers.

The "Optical" designation refers to the instrument's offset bridge geometry, which aligns the serrated grasping jaws perfectly within the telescope's field of view. This design eliminates the "visual lag" often associated with flexible grasping wires, providing the tactile direct-drive control necessary for extracting stubborn stent fragments or large bladder stones.

Key Specifications

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• Rigid Direct-Drive Stability: Unlike flexible grasping wires that can buckle under tension, the rigid shaft of the 502-880-211 provides a 1:1 transfer of force. This is essential when attempting to dislodge encrusted stents or grasping slippery foreign objects that require significant "pinch" force.

• Optimized Visual Field Alignment: Specifically calibrated for 0° and 12° optics, the jaws stay centered in the "sweet spot" of the lens. This prevents the surgeon from having to chase the target "off-screen," significantly reducing procedural time and mucosal trauma.

• Atraumatic Serrated Jaws: The alligator-style serrations are precision-ground to provide a multi-point mechanical interlock. This ensures a secure grip on both soft tissue and hard calcified surfaces without the risk of the object sliding out during withdrawal.

• Ergonomic Control: The thumb-ring handle features a responsive spring-return mechanism, providing the surgeon with immediate tactile feedback—a critical safety feature when working near the bladder neck or ureteral orifices.

• Stryker Industrial Durability: Forged from high-tensile stainless steel, the 502-880-211 is built to maintain its jaw alignment and spring tension through years of heavy clinical use and repeated sterilization.

Applications

• Urology: Retrieval of migrated stents, "JJ" stent fragments, and foreign bodies.

• Calculi Management: Grasping and extracting small bladder stones or stone fragments following lithotripsy.

• Tissue Manipulation: Securely holding suspicious lesions for assessment or stabilization during auxiliary procedures.

Condition & Quality Assurance

• Status: Used – Good Condition.

• Maintenance: This instrument has been professionally inspected for jaw alignment and shaft straightness. The serrated teeth meet perfectly with no lateral "play," and the spring-action handle is fluid with no mechanical hitches.

• Professional Standards: With over 25 years of experience in surgical endoscopy and hospital materials, Primis Medical ensures all Stryker rigid instrumentation is function-verified and ultrasonically cleaned prior to shipment.

Shipping & Handling

• Secure Logistics: Shipped in a rigid, protective container to ensure the long-axis alignment of the forceps remains pristine and the grasping jaws remain protected from impact during transit.

• Fast Dispatch: Ships within 1 business day.
