Cottle Nasal Speculum black 90mm, 14cm

Clinical Application

Provides controlled bilateral retraction of the nasal vestibule and anterior nasal cavity to improve visualization and instrument access during diagnostic nasal endoscopy, septoplasty, turbinate reduction, rhinoplasty, foreign body removal, and minor in-office procedures. Useful for both operative and clinical examination settings where direct line-of-sight exposure of the anterior nasal vault is required.

Design & Configuration

Double-bladed Cottle geometry allows the clinician to gently separate the nasal walls and maintain an open working corridor. The 14 cm overall length offers reach into the anterior nasal cavity while a 90 mm spread provides broad exposure of the internal nasal floor and septal area. The handheld, non-self-retaining design gives the operator tactile control and rapid adjustment of retraction during dynamic procedures. A black finish reduces surface reflections under surgical lighting, improving visual contrast for fine mucosal work.
