Toennis Dura Hook 15cm

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled elevation and retraction of the dura mater during cranial and spinal procedures. The fine hook tip allows the surgeon to engage dural edges or flaps for exposure, dural suturing, or temporary retraction while minimizing shear forces on delicate meningeal tissue. Useful in craniotomy, burr-hole procedures, subdural exposure, and selected spinal dural work where a precise, atraumatic point of purchase is required.

Design & Configuration

The single-ended, hand-held hook geometry provides direct tactile feedback and precise control when mobilizing or holding dural tissue. At 15 cm overall length, the instrument reaches common operative corridors while remaining maneuverable in confined spaces. The fine atraumatic hook tip is shaped to engage tissue securely without large contact surfaces that can increase tearing or inadvertent tension.
