Clinical Application
This chisel-style instrument is designed for controlled bone scoring and fracturing during rhinologic procedures. It is commonly used for lateral and medial nasal osteotomies, nasal bone mobilization in primary and secondary rhinoplasty, and limited bone work during endoscopic sinonasal surgery. The 10 mm blade width allows the surgeon to create defined osteotomy lines while preserving tactile feedback for precise bone separation.
Design & Configuration
The chisel-style cutting edge provides a direct, axial force transfer ideal for scoring cortical bone. A 10 mm blade width offers a balance between focused penetration and a broader contact area to produce consistent fracture lines. The 16 cm overall length gives sufficient reach for intranasal approaches while maintaining control and leverage for hand-driven osteotomies. Ergonomic handling aids controlled mallet strikes or manual driving without excessive bulk in the surgical field.
