The Ligature Needle AE 02-3924 is a high-precision surgical instrument intended for placing ligatures (suture ties) around blood vessels, ducts, or tissue bundles. It is particularly suited for procedures where deep access or constrained working fields are involved—such as vascular surgery, general surgery, thoracic and abdominal surgery, or gynecologic operations.

Ligature needles are used to encircle or tie off structures to control bleeding, secure closures, or aid tissue adaptation. The AE 02-3924 model belongs to a family of ligature/reverdin/ligature-type suture instruments, designed to combine reach, strength, and fine control.

Design & Construction

• Material: Constructed from high-grade surgical stainless steel. This ensures durability, corrosion resistance, and ability to withstand repeated sterilization (autoclaving). The stainless steel body also allows for smooth, polished surfaces to reduce tissue friction and avoid snagging.

• Needle Tip & Shape: The tip is sharp or semi-sharp (depending on the variant), designed to penetrate tissue cleanly with minimal trauma. It is likely tapered to reduce resistance in penetrating skin or fascia. The curvature of the needle (often a curved arc) helps to navigate around anatomical obstacles and reach vessels or structures hidden behind other tissues.

• Length & Size: Although exact published length for AE 02-3924 was not found, similar ligature needles in this series tend to be relatively long (approx. 180-230 mm) depending on whether the needle is for shallow or deep applications. The gauge (thickness) is selected to balance strength (so it doesn’t bend or deflect under pressure) and thinness (to minimize tissue displacement and damage).

• Finish & Ergonomics: The needle’s shaft is polished. The finish is smooth to facilitate passage through tissue and reduce “drag” on suturing material. The handle or butt of the needle is designed so that the surgeon gets firm control: often slightly thicker near the rear for grip, possibly with a smooth grip or lightly textured surface so handling is sure even when gloves are wet.

Applications & Advantages

• Deep or Confined Ligation: In operations where ligatures must be placed behind organs, around vessels, or inside body cavities with limited visibility, the length + curvature of AE 02-3924 gives reach and maneuverability.

• Vascular Control: Useful in tying off small to medium vessels, securing hemostasis in surgery.

• General & Specialty Surgery: Works in general surgery (gut, abdominal wall), gynecology (ligating uterine arteries etc.), thoracic (small vessel ligature), possibly ENT if anatomy requires.

• Reduced Tissue Trauma: Sharp tip + smooth shaft reduces tearing; fine gauge and good finish reduce “drag” on the ligature material.

• Reusable & Sterilizable: Durable design allows multiple usages if maintained properly, giving cost benefits over frequent disposables.

Care, Handling & Considerations

• Cleaning: Immediately after use, clean thoroughly to remove tissue debris, blood, suture remnants. Curvature areas may trap debris; ensure brushes/access for cleaning curved parts.

• Inspection: Check tip sharpness; verify needle is straight/curved as intended; inspect for any burrs or corrosion; ensure handle grip is intact.

• Sterilization Protocol: Autoclaving is standard; ensure instrument is dry after sterilization to avoid rust spots. Stainless steel helps, but moisture can degrade finish over time.

• Appropriate Use: Select correct curvature/length for surgical needs. Over-bending or misusing can distort needle. Use with ligature material suitable for needle eye size and flexibility.

• Storage: Store in trays protecting tips; avoid impacts that could blunt or damage the tip or alter the curve.
