Clinical Application
Designed for controlled tissue and cartilage trimming within the nasal cavity, this nasal cutting forceps is used in procedures such as septoplasty, rhinoplasty, turbinate reduction, submucosal resections and targeted intranasal excisions. The instrument facilitates precise removal of small segments of mucosa or cartilage in confined operative corridors where visibility and delicate control are required.
Design & Configuration
The instrument’s 20 cm working length provides reach into the nasal vault while allowing the operator to maintain tactile control at the handle. The distal cutting jaws operate with a scissor‑action to deliver clean, controlled bites with minimal tissue drag. The Fig. 1 tip profile is a manufacturer‑designated jaw geometry optimized for precise intra‑nasal trimming, enabling accurate tissue engagement in narrow spaces without excessive bulk.
