Freer Septum Knife 19cm

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled mucosal incisions and initial dissection in septoplasty and rhinoplasty procedures. The instrument is used to score septal mucosa, initiate mucoperichondrial elevation, and create precise access for septal cartilage work or graft harvesting. Its slim profile facilitates use in confined nasal cavities and permits sequential anterior-to-posterior cutting and dissection without frequent instrument changes.

Design & Configuration

The straight, flat blade geometry provides a low-profile cutting surface that improves visualization and reduces drag on mucosa during scoring. A double-ended configuration (common to this pattern) allows the surgeon to reverse the working end quickly for bilateral or variable-angle work without repositioning the instrument. The 19 cm length gives adequate reach for posterior septal work while maintaining tactile control for delicate dissection near the mucoperichondrial plane.
