Neurosurgical and Spinal Surgery Instruments
Neurosurgery instruments are specialized tools used in surgical procedures involving the brain, spinal cord, and nervous system. These instruments are designed to provide precision and control in delicate operations. Here are some key points about neurosurgery instruments:
1-Scalpels and Blades: Used for making incisions in the scalp and dura mater. Available in various sizes and blade shapes for different surgical needs. Cranial Rongeurs: Instruments designed to remove bone during craniotomies. They have sharp, cupped tips for effective bone removal. Micro Scissors: Fine-tipped scissors are used for cutting delicate tissues and structures in the brain. Essential for microsurgical techniques.
2-RingForceps: Various types of forceps are used to grasp and manipulate tissues, including tissue forceps and hemostatic forceps. Designed for precision handling of small structures.
3-Needle Holders: Used for suturing delicate tissues with fine needles. Provide a secure grip for precise suturing.
4-Electrocautery Devices: Instruments that use electrical currents to cut tissue and coagulate blood vessels. Help minimize bleeding during surgery.
5-Handheld and self-retaining retractors: Instruments used to hold back tissues and provide visibility of the surgical field. Available in various shapes and sizes to accommodate different areas of the brain.
6-Suction Devices: Fine suction tips are used to remove blood and fluids from the surgical site. Help maintain a clear view during surgery.
7-Microscopes and Loupes: Optical devices that provide magnification for detailed work on small structures. Essential for microsurgical procedures in neurosurgery.
