Weil-Blakesley Sinuscopy Forceps

Description

Weil-Blakesley Sinuscopy Forceps

Weil-Blakesley sinuscopy forceps grasp and remove tissue during sinus surgery. ENT surgeons use them widely in ethmoid work and polyp removal, often through an endoscope.

A classic ethmoid pattern

The forceps reach into the ethmoid cells and bite off tissue each time they close. As a result, the surgeon clears diseased tissue step by step. Many surgeons therefore consider them a core sinus instrument.

Many options

We offer lengths of 12 cm and 17 cm. In addition, you can choose a 0, 45 or 90 degree angle and a right or left side. Jaws come in 2.5, 3, 3.5 or 4 mm, for 48 options in total.

Why angles matter

Straight forceps suit areas directly ahead. However, angled jaws reach around corners, such as toward the frontal recess. So many trays hold straight and angled versions together.

Building a set

First, pick the lengths your approach needs. Next, choose the angles and jaw widths you use most. We are glad to help you plan a balanced selection.

Caring for your Weil-Blakesley sinuscopy forceps

Open and rinse the jaws right after the case. Then flush the joint and brush away trapped tissue. Dry the forceps fully before sterilization.
