Babcock Forceps are ratcheted, finger ring, and non-perforating forceps and are widely used to grasp delicate tissues during surgical procedures. They are commonly used in laparotomy and intestinal processes. They are similar to Allis forceps, though they may be less traumatic due to round and wider grasping surface. The hypogastric connective tissues are perforated lateromedially. Thus these forceps are gently opened to enlarge the passage.
