Heymann Septum Forceps

Description

Heymann Septum Forceps

The Heymann septum forceps grips and compresses the nasal septum. Our supplier groups the Heymann septum forceps with compression forceps, which ENT surgeons use to straighten septal cartilage.

Compression for a straighter septum

Surgeons often prefer to reshape a deviated septum rather than remove it. So they grip the curved section between the jaws and press it flat. That keeps more natural support in the nose.

Small, medium and large

We offer three sizes: small, medium and large. The supplier catalogue gives a length of about 18 cm. However, the listing does not say which dimension changes between sizes, so ask us for detail.

Working with the three sizes

A small Heymann suits narrow noses or tight areas near the front. Meanwhile, the larger sizes cover a broader section at once. Many surgeons use two sizes during the same septoplasty.

Advice on picking sizes

Begin with the medium size if you want one Heymann for general cases. Next, add the small version for pediatric-sized anatomy or detail work. The large size then completes the set.

Caring for the Heymann

Remove mucus and blood promptly with a rinse after the case. Also scrub the jaw faces and box joint using a soft brush. Then dry every Heymann size fully before sterilizing it.

Heymann warranty and delivery

A three-year warranty comes with each Heymann size and covers workmanship defects. Before a Heymann ships, we inspect it by hand in Atlanta. The Heymann FAQ page answers most payment and delivery questions. For Heymann steel, our reference point is ASTM F899. Surgeons who want right and left versions can look at the Craig-Dominick septum forceps. Then browse our ENT and rhinology instruments.

The Heymann suits professional users only. Our Heymann care and sterilization overview explains how Heymann photos relate to real stock and why stainless steel includes nickel. Our Heymann returns policy lets you send back unused pieces.
