• Move the jaws apart (figure 3.5 A). Take a second wire holding it about one third down from the far end using a forceps.
Align the wire parallel with the vessel segment such that the wire can be passed into the far end of the lumen. Gently feed
the wire through the lumen of the vessel segment in one movement using the first mounted wire as a guide (figure 3.5 B-C).
Hold the wire at a point at least 10 mm from the vessel to prevent the vessel being stretched during the manoeuvre. Be
careful not to touch the lumen of the vessel with the end of the wire and when pushing the wire end through the near end
of the lumen. Once the wire has successfully passed through the lumen of the vessel segment, place the wire in a position,
which ensures sufficient length for the wire to be secured both at the near and far fixing screws on the right-hand jaw.
3.1.4 Mounting step four
• Using forceps, gently rub the vessel segment on the far side of the jaw to separate any excess vessel segment from the area
of interest clamped in the gap between the jaws (figure 3.4 A). Make sure that the vessel segment is separated as close as
possible to the jaws (figure 3.4 B). The excessive vessel segment is finally dissected free and removed from the wire (figure
3.4 C).
