Castroviejo Needle Holders for Precision Microsurgery

These Castroviejo-style needle holders are built for fine suturing where consistent, reliable needle control matters most. Tungsten carbide inserts in the jaws grip suture needles securely across repeated passes, while a PVD-coated German stainless steel body resists wear over the instrument’s working life. The design supports cardiac, vascular, ophthalmic, neurosurgical, and reconstructive procedures where precision handling is essential.

Overall length affects reach and control: the 180mm option suits superficial and ophthalmic work, 210mm offers a balanced reach for general microsurgery, and 235mm is intended for cardiac and deeper neurosurgical access. Tip width is similarly application-driven — 0.5mm for ophthalmic and pediatric cases, 1.0mm to 1.5mm for vascular and microsurgical work, and 2.0mm for reconstructive procedures. Locking and non-locking jaw mechanisms are both offered, and tips are available straight for direct access or curved for angled surgical fields.
