Fistula Probe 24cm

Clinical Application

This instrument is used to explore and delineate the course of fistulae and sinus tracts. It facilitates assessment of tract length, direction and patency, and is used to probe internal openings prior to definitive repair, to guide placement of setons or drainage material, and to confirm communication with adjacent cavities. Common clinical settings include colorectal, general, ENT, dermatologic and reconstructive procedures where precise tract mapping reduces the risk of blind dissection.

Design & Configuration

The slender, single-ended shaft and blunt, rounded tip allow controlled insertion along narrow or tortuous tracts while minimizing tissue trauma. The 24 cm length provides reach for deeper or longer tracts encountered in perianal, pilonidal or complex sinus disease, permitting the clinician to establish tract direction and depth before further intervention. The rigid profile transmits gentle tactile feedback so the operator can discern obstructions, branch points, or internal openings.
