Clinical Application
Designed for precise cutting and removal of small portions of nasal mucosa and cartilage, this long-shaft cutting forceps is used in intranasal procedures where controlled bites are required. Common applications include septoplasty, inferior turbinate reduction, endonasal rhinoplasty, and targeted excision of polyps or scar tissue under direct or endoscopic visualization. The instrument's length and cutting tip facilitate access to deep intranasal anatomy while maintaining tactile feedback for delicate dissection.
Design & Configuration
The instrument's elongated shaft and slim profile allow comfortable access through the nostril and working channels used in endoscopic ENT surgery. Ring handles with a box-lock provide reliable alignment and tip stability for repeatable, controlled cutting motions. The Figure 2 jaw profile is configured to balance reach and visibility in confined nasal cavities, enabling surgeons to take measured bites of mucosa or cartilage without obstructing the operative field.
