Laryngeal Forceps: Precision Tools for ENT & Airway Procedures
Laryngeal forceps are specialized surgical instruments used in ear, nose, and throat (ENT) and laryngological procedures. These forceps are designed for working inside the larynx (voice box) and upper airway, enabling surgeons to grasp, biopsy, or remove tissues with precision in narrow and delicate spaces.
Common Types of Laryngeal Forceps
1. Biopsy Laryngeal Forceps
Use: Taking tissue samples from the larynx for pathological examination.
Feature: Small, cupped jaws; often with sharp edges.
2. Grasping Laryngeal Forceps
Use: Holding or removing foreign bodies or polyps.
Feature: Smooth or serrated jaws for secure grip without damaging tissues.
3. Punch Laryngeal Forceps
Use: Removing nodules, cysts, or lesions.
Feature: Sharp, punch-style tip for precise excision.
4. Micro Laryngeal Forceps
Use: Delicate microsurgeries under operating microscopes.
Feature: Extra-fine tips; used in vocal cord surgeries.
Common Surgical Applications
Microlaryngoscopy
Vocal cord polyp removal
Laryngeal biopsy
Airway tumor excision
Foreign body retrieval in the larynx or trachea
Papilloma debulking procedures

RIGOR’s Advanced Opening Technology
Cleaning and sterilizing delicate ENT instruments—especially laryngeal cup forceps—has always posed a challenge due to their slim shafts, hinged joints, and tight articulations. At Rigor Instruments, we have engineered a solution: RIGOR’s Opening Technology to make post-surgical maintenance easier, faster, and safer.
What Is Forcep shaft Opening Technology?
Originally introduced by the German company PILLING, this mechanism allows surgical forceps to:
Open completely at the joint
Separate the upper jaw and handle for thorough cleaning
Reassemble quickly and securely without losing calibration or spring action
How RIGOR Adapts This in Our ENT Forceps
We have adopted and improved this system for our laryngeal and micro-laryngeal instruments, enabling:
360° access to inner channels during cleaning
Reduced bio-burden risk thanks to accessible crevices
Tool-free disassembly (no screws or external pins)
Secure snap-lock system that maintains perfect jaw alignment after reassembly
Benefits for Hospitals & Sterile Processing Departments (SPD)
Faster turnover time after surgery
Lower risk of contamination and retained bioburden
Longer instrument lifespan due to corrosion-free joints
Meets ISO 17664 and AAMI ST79 cleaning standards
Laryngeal Irrigation Forceps — Dual-Function Precision for ENT Excellence
Laryngeal Irrigation Forceps are highly specialized instruments designed for simultaneous tissue handling and fluid irrigation during microlaryngeal or endolaryngeal procedures. These forceps combine the functionality of standard grasping or biopsy forceps with an integrated irrigation channel, allowing ENT surgeons to maintain a clear surgical field without needing an extra instrument.
Key Features
Dual-Channel Design: One for mechanical operation (grasping, cutting, biopsy), and one for fluid flow.
Built-In Irrigation Port: Connects seamlessly to standard syringes or saline tubing.
Precision Jaws: Available in cup or smooth tip styles for tissue removal or manipulation.
Slim Shaft: Allows access through narrow laryngoscopes or rigid endoscopes.
Common Surgical Applications
Microlaryngoscopy with suction/irrigation
Vocal cord lesion resection
Tumor or polyp removal with continuous field flushing
Debridement of infected or inflamed tissues
Post-laser debris removal
Rigor Instruments Advantage
Rigor is one of the very few manufacturers in Pakistan offering high-precision laryngeal irrigation forceps with CNC-crafted irrigation channels. Our designs ensure:
- Unobstructed fluid flow
- Leak-proof connections
- Autoclavable construction (ISO 17665 compliant)
