Clinical Application
Designed for reliable tactile exploration and limited tissue manipulation in confined anatomy. Common clinical uses include probing fistulae and sinus tracts, identifying and following ducts or canals, delineating the depth and course of cavities, and assisting in minor debridement or separation of adhesions where a narrow flat edge is advantageous. Appropriate for ENT, general, colorectal, oral/maxillofacial and minor surgical procedures that require fine tract interrogation and controlled tissue contact.
Design & Configuration
The low-profile chisel tip provides a flat, beveled edge that facilitates controlled scraping, gentle blunt dissection, and passage through narrow lumens without excessive tissue penetration. The 2 mm tip width maintains a narrow footprint for access into small or tortuous tracts while the 18 cm shaft length gives reach to deeper cavities. A single-piece solid shaft transmits tactile feedback to the operator, aiding in confirmation of lumen continuity and in assessing tissue resistance.
