?:definition
  • Surgical hooks designed to temporarily secure vasa deferentia tissues by catching and/or pulling them during dissection, excision, and/or to perform other surgical procedures with minimal trauma. These surgical hooks typically consist of handheld manual stainless steel instruments that are straight at the working end and finished in a blunt or sharp tip. The hooks typically include a handle at the proximal end. Vasectomy surgical hooks are usually small and sharp tools used to penetrate the skin of the scrotum and pull out the vas deferens so that the surgeon can sever them. They are used during surgical procedures for male sterilization and/or permanent birth control (i.e. vasectomy).
