Indications for Laparoscopic and
General Surgery Use

reconstructive, bowel resections, hysterectomies, cholecystectomies, gall
bladder procedures, Nissen fundoplication, adhesiolysis, oophorectomies,
etc.), or any procedure where vessel ligation (cutting and sealing), tissue
grasping and dissection is performed. The devices can be used on vessels
up to and including 7 mm and bundles as large as will t in the jaws of the
instruments.

irrigant is used or with patients having cardiac pacemakers or other
electronic implants.
• The Crosseal system should not be used for tubal ligation.
