title: Haemostatic clips and clamps used in surgical neurology with special reference to non ferro magnetic Phynox spring clips by Aesculap.
abstract: This paper concerns the historical developments and technical properties of haemostatic devices used in neurosurgery with the exception of coagulation. Therefore there are described haemostatic clips designed for the scalp, clips used on arteries and veins, a clamp for the reduction of the carotid diameter in the neck, and a clamp for closing the venous dural sinuses. Special reference will be made regarding non ferro magnetic Phynox clips by Aesculap.
