Clinical Application
Designed for otolaryngology and facial plastic procedures, this nasal cutting forceps provides focused cutting performance for intranasal tissue and cartilage management. Common uses include precise excision and trimming of mucosa, resection of small polyps or granulation tissue, contouring or trimming of septal and alar cartilage during rhinoplasty, and controlled tissue removal during turbinate reduction.
Design & Configuration
The scissor-style forceps geometry with dedicated cutting jaws offers controlled bite and tactile feedback, enabling the surgeon to excise tissue in confined intranasal spaces while maintaining visualization. The 18 cm overall length balances reach inside the nasal cavity with fine distal control at the tip, helping the operator access posterior and superior intranasal targets without excessive hand intrusion. A precision hinge/box-lock (typical of hand-held cutting forceps) supports repeatable jaw alignment and predictable cutting action during delicate dissections.
