Calvian endo-pen® Bipolar Forceps
Thanks to its forceps-like handle, the Calvian endo-pen® bipolar forceps allow for intuitive handling similar to conventional microinstruments – with no assembly and no loose parts. The tips of the Calvian endo-pen® are designed not only for precise coagulation but also for grasping and manipulating tissue.
With its slim shaft and ergonomic handle, the Calvian endo-pen® bipolar forceps offer increased maneuverability around the endoscope. This makes the instrument an ideal solution for bipolar coagulation in endonasal and transnasal endoscopic surgery.
Forceps-like handle
The slim, forceps-like handle fits securely in the hand and supports precise, controlled handling.
Slim design for confined surgical spaces
Its fine, long shaft supports precise access to anatomically challenging regions.
Available in horizontal or vertical configuration
The Calvian endo-pen® is available with either horizontally or vertically oriented tips – tailored to different surgical scenarios.
Available with EU flat connector or US 2-pin connector.
Flushing port for cleaning.

Precision that convinces
“The non-stick Calvian endo-pen® by Sutter is a game changer. It´s my go to bipolar for all endoscopic surgery."
“The curved endo-pen is innovatively designed for endonasal surgery of the anterior cranial base. Its design enables precise access to the ethmoid arteries, facilitating hemostasis while minimizing morbidity to the surrounding anatomy, including the orbit and skull base. It’s my instrument of choice in addressing bleeding during endoscopic craniofacial resections, reducing meningoencephaloceles from the anterior cranial fossa, and arterial control in cases of severe epistaxis — an indispensable instrument for any endoscopic cranial base surgeon.”
“The angled, thin tips of the Calvian endo-pen® bipolar forceps have proven to be very effective and precise for soft tissue coagulation to achieve hemostasis. Even very small vessels can be occluded selectively. Moreover, the instrument is helpful for outward dissection in separating normal from tumor tissue. Its easy intraoperative handling and precise coagulation make it a promising instrument for EETS for central skull base pathologies. With its slender shaft and fine tips, the instrument offers all the characteristics required for minimally invasive endonasal surgery.”
