Milligan Dura Dissector double 21cm

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled blunt dissection of the dura mater and adjacent soft tissues during neurosurgical and spinal procedures. The instrument is used to develop tissue planes, reflect dura from bone edges, free adhesions, and create working space around neural structures without sharp cutting. Its length and configuration make it suitable for use in craniotomy, cranial vault exposure, and posterior spinal approaches where precise, atraumatic tissue separation is required.

Design & Configuration

The double configuration provides paired dissecting surfaces that allow balanced spreading and controlled mobilization of soft tissue layers. At 21 cm overall length the instrument gives surgeons reach into the surgical field while retaining tactile feedback and instrument control. The geometry favors atraumatic blunt dissection where preservation of the underlying pia, cortex, or neural elements is critical; the paired surfaces help distribute force to minimize focal pressure on delicate tissues.
