The Non-Cantilevered, Small Ringed Forceps |
If the practitioner is reaching into the scrotum to find and deliver the vasa - the smaller ring is much easier to insert into the scrotal opening. |

The second most popular ringed forceps is a non-cantilevered, slightly smaller ringed forceps. These have a ring diameter of approximately 3.0mm. Most practitioners who prefer this instrument tell us that they are not performing a standard NSV approach. Instead, they are creating a small entry using a scalpel or hemostat, then reaching into the scrotum with the instrument, grasping around the vas, and pulling it out through the opening. Using this forceps the risk of bleeding is much higher than with the standard cantilevered forceps, but delivery can be easier than with standard NSV technique. If the practitioner is reaching into the scrotum to find and deliver the vasa in this way, the smaller ring is much easier to insert into the scrotal opening. |
