Modified Chalazion Clamp : Novel Applications in Dermatologic Surgery

Copyright © 2024. Matrix Medical Communications. All rights reserved..

Biopsies and excisions of mucosal surfaces can be challenging due to poor visualization and bleeding control. Surgeons have utilized chalazion clamps to overcome these challenges. However, its original design incorporates a locking mechanism which restricts its use to more proximal mucosal surfaces, does not allow for flexible exertional pressure control by the operator, and it is only available in one size. We designed a modified chalazion clamp without a locking mechanism and in two different sizes and ring diameters to overcome these challenges. In this report, we demonstrate the enhanced utility and effectiveness of the modified chalazion clamp in dermatological procedures through different cases.
