How are toothed Adson tissue forceps distinguished from others?

Toothed Adson tissue forceps are distinguished specifically by the structure of their tips, which feature small, interlocking teeth. This design allows for a secure grip on tissues without causing unnecessary trauma, making them highly effective for manipulating delicate structures during surgical procedures. The unique tip structure is what sets them apart from other forceps, which may have smooth or differently shaped tips that are better suited for various tasks. The interlocking teeth of the Adson forceps enable the surgeon to hold tissues securely, which is critical in surgical settings where precision is key.
