Clinical Application
Designed for precision meniscal work, this left-cutting meniscal knife is used to incise, trim, and excise meniscal tissue during knee procedures. It is applicable in open and arthroscopic-assisted meniscectomy or meniscal repair procedures where a controlled, single-edge cutting action and a specific blade orientation are required to access lesions while protecting adjacent cartilage.
Design & Configuration
The left-oriented cutting blade places the cutting edge toward the left side of the instrument shaft when held in standard orientation, allowing surgeons to approach tissue from angles that favor left-hand or contralateral access. The 17 cm overall length balances reach and tactile control in the joint space or through small arthrotomy incisions. The left-curved profile facilitates controlled slicing motions along the meniscal rim and posterior horn while minimizing the need for forceful retraction.
