Stapes Prosthesis Handling Forcep

Stapes Prosthesis Forceps
Stapes prosthesis handling forceps are specialized surgical instruments used in otologic procedures, particularly for stapes surgery. These forceps are designed to handle and manipulate stapes prostheses during the surgical process. Here are some key features and specifications:

Stapes Prosthesis Handling Forceps: These forceps are used to catch and manipulate the hook of the stapes prosthesis. They have grooves in their jaws that allow the hook of the prosthesis to open when forced into the grooves. This design enables the prosthesis to be easily assembled to the incus.
Material: The forceps are typically made of stainless steel, which provides durability and resistance to corrosion.
Ref No: EI03: This refers to a titanium-stapes prosthesis handling forceps, with each unit packed in a box.
Ref No: EI05: This refers to a PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene)-stapes prosthesis handling forceps, also packed in a single unit per box.
These forceps are crucial for ensuring precise and effective placement of the stapes prosthesis during surgery, which is essential for restoring hearing in patients with conductive hearing loss due to conditions like otosclerosis.
