Description
Tyding Tonsil Snare
The Tyding tonsil snare is a wire snare for tonsillectomy. Surgeons use it to cut through the pedicle at the lower pole of the tonsil once the dissection nears the end.
How the snare works
First, the wire loop passes over the tonsil and around its base. Then a squeeze tightens the Tyding loop, which cuts through the tissue. As a result, the tonsil comes free.
A straight shape
We list the Tyding pattern with a straight shape. Our listing does not give a length, so contact us if you need dimensions. We will reply with the measurements we hold.
Where it fits in tonsillectomy
Surgeons often dissect the tonsil first. Next, they use the snare to finish at the lower pole. Meanwhile, seizing forceps hold the tonsil steady.
Choosing a snare
We also sell the Bruenings and Eves snares. For example, the Eves snare comes with or without a ratchet. Compare them with the Tyding tonsil snare and pick what suits your hand.
Caring for your Tyding snare
Remove the used wire after each case. Next, clean the shaft and the channel for the wire. Then dry the Tyding tonsil snare fully, and finally sterilize it.
