Clinical Application
Designed for intranasal and endonasal work, this Jatho-pattern rhinology forceps provides controlled grasping and manipulation of delicate mucosa, small polyps, packing material, and soft tissues during septoplasty, turbinate reduction, polypectomy, and routine nasal cavity procedures. The fine atraumatic jaws enable secure tissue handling with minimal crush injury, making the instrument useful for both open and endoscopic-assisted rhinologic techniques.
Design & Configuration
The long, slender shaft geometry gives reach into the anterior and posterior nasal cavity while maintaining a low profile in the endoscopic field. A 150 mm shaft combined with a 24 cm overall length balances working depth with handle control, reducing hand crowding at the nostril. The narrow jaw design provides precise tip contact for delicate maneuvers; the shaft length and slim shaft allow the surgeon to work alongside endoscopes and other instruments with improved visualization and access.
