Clinical Application
Designed for intranasal use, this Lubet-Barbon nasal forceps provides controlled grasping and manipulation of mucosa, cartilage, and small intranasal specimens during ENT procedures. The 20 cm working length allows access to deeper portions of the nasal cavity and choanae without obstructing endoscopic visualization, making it suitable for septoplasty, rhinoplasty, turbinate reduction, endoscopic sinus surgery adjunctive tasks, and clinic-level nasal examinations or packing removal.
Design & Configuration
The instrument’s elongated shaft and fine working tips are intended to permit precise, low-profile access within the narrow confines of the nasal airway. A slim profile reduces soft-tissue compression and improves sightlines for parallel endoscopic or headlight illumination. The forceps configuration facilitates controlled, tactile feedback for atraumatic tissue handling, suture placement, and specimen retrieval in confined anatomies.
