Barbara Micro Otology needle angled 15cm

Clinical Application

Designed for microsurgical work within the external auditory canal and middle ear, this angled Barbara micro-otology needle provides precise point control for tasks such as graft placement and manipulation, fine dissection of scar or granulation tissue, and handling of delicate tympanic membrane margins under the operating microscope. Its geometry supports access to recesses and around ossicular structures where straight instruments can obstruct the view or limit reach.

Design & Configuration

The angled shaft reorients the needle tip relative to the handle to improve line-of-sight and instrument clearance in deep or narrow surgical corridors. The fine-point needle tip enables atraumatic penetration and precise manipulation of thin membranes and grafts. A 15 cm overall length balances reach into the canal and mastoid cavities with tactile control suitable for micro-instrumentation techniques.
