Middleton-Jansen septum cutting Fcps 19cm

Clinical Application

Designed for ENT procedures that require controlled removal of septal cartilage and soft tissue, this septum-cutting forceps is used during septoplasty, turbinate reduction adjuncts, and open or endonasal rhinoplasty. The cutting jaws allow the surgeon to take precise bites of deviated cartilage, bony spurs, or scar tissue in the confined intranasal space, facilitating reshaping and allocation of graft material while minimizing collateral mucosal trauma.

Design & Configuration

The scissor-style geometry provides direct tactile feedback and precise manual control over cutting excursions. At 19 cm overall length, the instrument balances reach with intra-nasal maneuverability—long enough to access posterior septal segments while maintaining a compact profile for anterior work. The cutting jaw alignment concentrates force at the bite point to deliver predictable, controlled excisions and to reduce the need for repeated passes.
