The Sugita Clip has been contributing to the treatment of cerebral aneurysms in Japan and around the world since 1976.
This year, we are honored to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the launch.
This 50-year journey is built upon the dedication of:
- Dr. Kenichiro Sugita, the visionary founder of its development.
- The partner doctors who are carrying forward his legacy, and every surgeon relying on the Sugita Clip in their daily clinical practice today.
- The healthcare professionals, placing their steadfast trust in us.
- Our sales agents, serving as vital bridges to the medical community.
- And our Mizuho employees, upholding a mission of excellence in technology and quality.
The bonds we share with all of you are our pride and the driving force behind our future.
With this gratitude in our hearts, we promise to continue contributing to healthcare worldwide.
■ History of Sugita Clip

■ 50th Anniversary Commemorative Dialogue
Since 1976, the Sugita Clip has supported neurosurgeons for half a century, playing a role in countless life-saving procedures.
To commemorate this 50th anniversary, a special dialogue was held between Professor Nobuhito Saito of the University of Tokyo (President of the Japan Neurosurgical Society) and Hiroshi Nemoto, President and CEO of Mizuho. They reflected on the history and clinical value of the Sugita Clip and discussed its future prospects.
The full details of this conversation are scheduled to be published in the upcoming spring issue of “Currently Practical Neurosurgery” (Vol. 36, No. 3, 2026, MEDICUS SHUPPAN, Publishers).
Coming Soon.
