Dense tissue grasping in general and cardiovascular surgery requires a forcep jaw geometry that distributes compressive force evenly across the contact surface. The round jaw with circular rim serrations on the Russian Tissue Forcep is consistent with standard OR protocol for handling fascia, wound edges, and thick subcutaneous layers where point-contact toothed jaws risk localised tissue damage. Instrument geometry designed for wide jaw-to-tissue contact reduces concentrated pressure at any single point, a requirement in procedures involving repeated tissue manipulation within the same operative field.
