Medical dilation instrument for dilating bony structures in endoscopic throat, nose and ear surgery, has handle and tool head that are connected over operating element whose distal end projects over segments of head in distal direction

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The instrument (1) has a shaft (2), and a tool head (4) comprising radially outwardly pivotable segments (5) and arranged at a distal end of the shaft. A handle (3) is arranged at a proximal end of the shaft, where the handle and the head are connected with one another over an operating element (7) such that the segments of the head are adjustable between a closed position and a radially outwardly pivotable working position. A distal end (8) of the operating element projects over the segments of the head in a distal direction, and covered with a plastic casing. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Medical dilation instrument for dilating bony structures in endoscopic throat, nose and ear surgery for expanding frontal sinus of a patient and removing bony growth in the frontal sinus. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The distal end of the operating element projects over the segments of the head in the distal direction, and covered with the plastic casing, thus ensuring sensitive operation of the instrument, and enabling the instrument to have sufficient stability. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a schematic partial side sectional view of a medical dilation instrument. 1 : Medical dilation instrument 2 : Shaft 3 : Handle 4 : Tool head 5 : Radially outwardly pivotable segments 7 : Operating element 8 : Distal end of operating element.
