Davis Brain Spatula d/e malleable 32x178mm

Clinical Application

Designed for neurosurgical procedures that require atraumatic retraction and exposure of delicate cortical and subcortical structures. The malleable, double-ended design provides intraoperative flexibility for gentle separation of brain tissue, dural reflection, and corridor maintenance during tumor resection, aneurysm exposure, and other cranial cases where precise contouring and soft-tissue protection are required. The instrument's form helps distribute pressure over a broader surface to minimize focal pressure on cortical tissue.

Design & Configuration

The malleable construction allows the working ends to be shaped intraoperatively to conform to complex anatomy and maintain consistent retraction without repeated instrument exchanges. A double-ended configuration provides two usable blade orientations for quick transitions between retraction tasks or different working depths, improving efficiency on the field. The broad, flat spatula face is intended to spread contact forces and reduce point loading on neural tissue.

Instrument Specifications

• Pattern: Davis brain spatula
• Configuration: double-ended, malleable
• Size: 32 x 178 mm
• Working surface: flat spatula blade for atraumatic retraction
• Primary use: neurosurgical cortical and subcortical retraction
• Reusable design

Material & Construction

Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel and finished for smooth edges on the spatula faces to minimize tissue adherence and trauma. Malleable stainless construction permits controlled bending and re-shaping in the operative field while retaining sufficient stiffness for reliable retraction. Designed for repeated clinical use and reprocessing.

Quality & Compliance

Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.

Brand Comparison

Comparable in form and function to equivalent instruments offered by major US medical suppliers.
