Clinical Application
Designed for otolaryngology procedures, this instrument is used to grasp, secure and extract nasal polyps and small soft-tissue specimens from the nasal cavity. Its form is appropriate for in‑office or OR intranasal polypectomy and can be used as an adjunct to endoscopic sinus surgery for removal of friable tissue and discrete polypoid lesions.
Design & Configuration
The long shaft provides reach into the nasal vault while preserving hand clearance at the medial canthus. Ring handles afford precise manual control and predictable closing force; the cup-shaped polypus jaws are intended to encircle and compress soft polyp tissue to minimize slippage during extraction. The overall geometry balances reach with tactile feedback to facilitate controlled removal in confined intranasal spaces.
