Clinical Application
Precision instrument for controlled meniscal trimming during knee procedures. Designed for use in partial meniscectomy and meniscotomy to excise torn or degenerative meniscal tissue and to contour the meniscal rim. Suited for both open and minimally invasive approaches where a fine, controllable cutting edge is required to remove damaged tissue while preserving healthy meniscus.
Design & Configuration
The curved geometry provides improved access to the posterior horn and medial/lateral recesses of the knee without excessive retraction or repeated instrument repositioning. A slim shaft and ergonomic handle allow fine tactile feedback and directional control of the blade edge, enabling precise, incremental removal of meniscal fragments and controlled shaping of tear edges.
