Title: Comparative Evaluation of Vascular Clamps on the Arteriosclerotic Aortic Walls

Of the vascular clamps examined, the Satin sky clamp and the Fogarty clamp, followed by the Bulldog rubber clamp, proved to cause the least damage to the vessel wall. The Satinsky clamp and Fogarty clamp, in particular, appeared to be the most suitable for arterioscle rotic vessels. The Potts clamp, the Potts rubber clamp, and the Bulldog clamp, which were highly traumatic, should probably not be applied to peripheral or other small-sized blood vessels.Read More
