Angiotribe

⭐
neuter noun (medicine / medical equipment / surgery)

Definition

A heavy metallic surgical instrument shaped like a robust clamp, equipped with powerful, serrated jaws used to perform angiotripsy. This complex niche device exerts an extremely high and well-defined mechanical pressure on the wall of a severed blood vessel, aiming to crush the intima and media to trigger hemostasis through the rapid formation of a natural clot, thereby eliminating the need for thread ligatures during operations.
