Clinical Application
Designed to provide secure, controlled removal of nail tissue and small nail fragments during onychectomy, partial nail avulsion, removal of embedded nail debris, and minor outpatient orthopedic procedures. The 13 cm length offers a balance of reach and fine control suited to digit-level work in podiatry, dermatology and general surgery clinics, enabling atraumatic grip and extraction while minimizing soft-tissue disruption.
Design & Configuration
The instrument features a tapered, beak-style grasping tip that permits precise entry beneath the nail plate and an axial grip for extraction. The compact 13 cm overall length delivers tactile feedback and maneuverability in confined operative fields. Handle geometry is configured to allow controlled manual force for progressive extraction without excessive leverage, supporting careful removal of nail material while protecting surrounding tissue.
