Wagener Ear Hook sharp 14cm, Fig.6

Clinical Application

Designed for otologic and external ear procedures, this sharp ear hook provides precise retraction and stabilization of soft tissue and cartilaginous structures. It is commonly used during canaloplasty, tympanoplasty, microsurgical dissection of the external auditory canal, and procedures where controlled elevation or anchoring of the pinna or canal margin is required. The sharp tip enables secure engagement of delicate tissue without bulky grasping, aiding visualization under the operating microscope.

Design & Configuration

The sharp hook profile offers a focused contact point for atraumatic yet secure engagement of tissue edges. At 14 cm overall length, the geometry balances surgeon reach and fine hand control—long enough to access deeper canal work while remaining compatible with microscope use and fine instrument handling. The Wagener Fig.6 profile denotes a specific hook angle and curvature chosen to optimize visibility and minimize obstruction in confined otologic fields.
