Ethicon LX230 Ligaclip Extra™ Medium 90° Right-Angle Clip Applier (11")

The Ethicon LX230 is a premium surgical instrument designed for the delivery of Medium (White) Ligaclip Extra™ titanium clips. This instrument is distinguished by its 90-degree right-angle jaw, providing surgeons with a specialized solution for "hooking" and ligating vessels in tight anatomical recesses.

As part of the Ligaclip Extra line, the LX230 features enhanced jaw grooves that significantly improve clip security. This minimizes the risk of clips shifting or dropping during the critical transition from the clip cartridge to the surgical site. At 11 inches in length, the LX230 offers the extended reach necessary for deep pelvic, abdominal, and thoracic procedures.

Clinical & Operational Advantages

• Precision Ligation: The 90° jaw is the clinical standard for performing "behind-the-vessel" ligation, allowing the surgeon to safely isolate and seal vessels that are parallel to the surgical plane.

• Enhanced Clip Security: The LX series jaws are specifically engineered to "lock" the clip into the applier, providing greater confidence when maneuvering through dense tissue or narrow corridors.

• Extended Surgical Reach: The 11-inch shaft ensures that surgeons can maintain a clear line of sight while working in deep surgical fields, reducing the need for excessive retraction.

• Consistent Closing Pressure: Ethicon’s mechanical design ensures that every clip is crimped with uniform pressure, creating a high-burst-strength seal on vascular structures.
