A modified version of a classic right angle clamp is described. The us
e of the new surgical instrument is advocated during radical retropubi
c prostatectomy and cystectomy for a safer and easier division of the
puboprostatic ligaments and the dorsal vein complex as a single unit.
The special shape of the clamp allows the surgeon to move freely and a
ngle it beneath the pubis without hindrance from the bladder.
