Clinical Application
This slender probe with a 2 mm spear point is designed for precise probing and tract exploration in a variety of surgical contexts. Common uses include exploration of fistulae and sinus tracts, assessment of wound depth and patency, localization and negotiation of narrow channels, guiding sutures or drains through tissue planes, and intraoperative probing in general, ENT and minor procedures where a fine, pointed probe is required.
Design & Configuration
The instrument’s single-ended, slender shaft provides tactile feedback when negotiating tissue and small channels. The 2 mm spear point concentrates force to facilitate controlled entry through membranous or fibrous tissue while minimizing the profile of the tip for delicate work. The 16 cm overall length offers reach into deeper cavities and wounds without excessive bulk, enabling controlled manipulation in confined operative fields.
