Myrtle Leaf Probe 2mm, 14.5cm

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled probing and exploration of narrow or confined anatomical spaces, this instrument is useful when a blunt, atraumatic contact surface is required to identify tract direction, confirm patency, or gently dilate an orifice. Common applications include exploration of sinus tracts and small ducts, guiding and directing suture placement in delicate areas, and intraoperative assessment of passages in ENT, ophthalmic, dental and minor soft-tissue procedures where delicate blunt dissection and tissue preservation are priorities.

Design & Configuration

The leaf-shaped distal tip provides a broader, flattened contact surface compared with rounded probes, allowing the surgeon to engage and redirect tissue with reduced risk of inadvertent penetration. The 2 mm tip diameter offers a balance between tactile feedback and atraumatic surface area, enabling controlled passage through narrow lumens. The 14.5 cm overall length gives sufficient reach for working within the oral cavity, nasal passages and small surgical fields while maintaining tactile control from the handle.

Instrument Specifications

• Instrument type: Probe (Myrtle leaf pattern)
