PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a leaflet sizer that is small and easy in handling.SOLUTION: A leaflet sizer 100 is provided for determining the size of a leaflet according to the size of a heart valve. The leaflet sizer concerning the present invention has an arc surface-shaped front 10 abutted by a living body, a back surface 20 positioned in the opposite surface side of the front, and a knob part 30 projecting from the back surface. In this way, a handle and a mounting part of this handle are eliminated from a conventional leaflet sizer, and alternatively, a knob part capable of being gripped by forceps or tweezers is formed, and thereby the size can dramatically be miniaturized, while leaving a necessary function of the leaflet sizer.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 |
