VE-21DX2 Li Brand Standard NSV Bundle

The Cantilevered Original
The first a-traumatic instrument specially designed for No-Scalpel Vasectomy. Holds the vas firmly in place without damaging the vas artery.
The term cantilever refers to the anti-lever action of the instrument. With most instruments, a scissors or standard Kelly, for instance, the more you close it, the greater the pressure exerted at the tips. With our Li Brand(TM) cantilevered ringed forceps, however, pressure at the tips only increases until the instrument is locked. After that, closing the instrument more actually causes the tips of the instrument to come apart, ever so gently, so that less pressure, not more, is exerted at the tips. Many companies have tried to copy this cantilever, but it is very difficult to produce well. According to Dr. Li Shunqiang, inventor of the No-Scalpel Vasectomy, the major reason for NSV's documented 10-fold reduction in complications, especially bleeding, is the cantilever on the ringed forceps. This cantilever allows the forceps to hold the vas firmly in place without pinching or crushing the highly delicate structures both in and around the vas. In particular, lower pressure at the tips helps protect the vas artery, which runs directly beneath the vas. Having the scrotal skin stretched tightly around the vas is also vitally important to a good no-scalpel vasectomy. If the vas is not fixed in place or is loose within the ring, the vas can 'swim' left or right during the procedure, rendering the surgical approach inaccurate and leading to inferior results. For most European and North American male vasa, the standard ring size for 95% of procedures is the 3.5mm VE-1. There are exceptions, but unless you serve an exceptionally corpulent male population with tight scrotums, the 3.5mm is the best size for you. In some cases, it may be useful to have a 4.0mm ringed forceps on hand for use with tougher cases, but larger than 4.0 and the vas may start to 'swim' from side to side inside the ring.
