Clinical Application
Designed for controlled bone scoring and sectioning in rhinologic procedures. Commonly used for lateral and medial nasal osteotomies during primary and secondary rhinoplasty, for reduction of nasal bone fractures, and for shaping bone segments where a straight chisel action is required. The 12 mm blade width provides a balance between surface contact for efficient cuts and the precision needed in confined nasal anatomy; the 16 cm length gives reach and leverage for predictable osteotomy lines.
Design & Configuration
The chisel-style cutting tip concentrates force into a flat, sharp edge to allow precise bone separation when used with controlled mallet strikes or manual advance. The overall length provides working distance from the surgeon’s hand to the nasal vault without excessive bulk, helping maintain line-of-sight and control. The single-ended, handheld configuration simplifies intraoperative handling and rapid repositioning for sequential osteotomy passes.
