The author describes one of the first atraumatic vascular clamps specifically developed for vascular surgery in 1903, and used for temporary arterial occlusion. This forceps was about 15 cm long, and its spring steel jaws were separated in the middle, but approximated toward the ends. This clamp was developed by Edmund Höpfner (b. 1873) in 1903, at the Berlin University Hospital, department of Surgery, when he performed end-to-end anastomoses of divided arteries in dogs as part of his doctoral thesis. The Höpfner clamp was in common use in Germany until the 1960s.
作者描述了1903年专门为血管外科手术研制的首批无创伤血管夹之一，用于临时动脉阻断。这种血管夹长约15厘米，其弹簧钢夹爪在中间分开，但在两端靠近。这种血管夹由埃德蒙·赫普夫纳（生于1873年）于1903年在柏林大学医院外科研制，当时他作为博士论文的一部分，在狗身上进行了离断动脉的端端吻合术。直到20世纪60年代，赫普夫纳血管夹在德国一直被广泛使用。
