Clinical Application
This instrument is designed for controlled access to the frontal sinus for irrigation, lavage, and targeted instillation of topical medications or contrast agents during endoscopic rhinology procedures. It is used to flush debris, mucus, or blood from the frontal recess, verify patency of outflow tracts, and deliver solutions directly into the frontal sinus when visualization and precision are required.
Design & Configuration
The slender single-lumen design and 15 cm working length provide the reach and control necessary to access the frontal recess and frontal sinus from intranasal approaches under endoscopic visualization. A narrow 2.0 mm lumen balances flow rate and maneuverability while the smooth distal opening minimizes mucosal irritation during insertion and irrigation. The straight, elongated profile is optimized for navigation through the nasal cavity to the frontal recess without obstructing the endoscopic view.
