Simon Fistula Hook 1pr. 22cm

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled probing and delineation of fistulous tracts, this instrument supports procedures where precise passage along a tract is required. Common uses include anorectal fistula procedures (fistulotomy, fistulectomy, seton placement), superficial cutaneous fistula exploration, and general surgical situations where a defined tract must be identified or cannulated prior to definitive repair.

Design & Configuration

The hook tip provides a focused point to follow the path of a fistula with tactile feedback, allowing the surgeon to gently negotiate the tract while minimizing collateral tissue trauma. Supplied as a matched pair, the instruments can be used for counter-traction, to control both entry and exit points of the tract, or to pass sutures and setons. At 22 cm overall length, the shaft offers reach for deeper or less accessible tracts while preserving fine control at the tip.
