Description

The Trethowan Bone Elevator is designed for lifting bone, moving soft tissue, and providing exposure during orthopedic, trauma, and reconstructive procedures. Its slim body makes it useful when the surgical area is deep or space is limited, while still giving the user good control over the working end.

At 22.5 cm (8½”) long, the instrument provides useful reach without being difficult to handle. It can be used for elevating periosteum, retracting soft tissue, and helping with the positioning of bone fragments during fracture management and reconstructive procedures.

The ring handle gives the instrument a secure grip and makes it easier to control during delicate work. The handle also allows the user to adjust the position of the working end without losing a firm hold on the instrument, which can be useful when working around bone fragments or soft tissue.

The slender profile and manageable length make the instrument suitable for areas where a bulkier elevator may be harder to position. It can be used alongside other elevators and retractors depending on the surgical approach and the type of exposure required.

It is made from surgical-grade stainless steel and goes through quality control inspection before it is supplied. The instrument is checked for its overall finish and condition, while the working end and ring handle are inspected to make sure they are properly finished and secure. These checks help ensure that the instrument is in good working condition before use. The stainless-steel construction also makes it suitable for regular cleaning and maintenance as a reusable surgical instrument.

With its slender profile, 22.5 cm length, and ring handle, the Trethowan Bone Elevator provides a practical option for controlled bone elevation, tissue retraction, and surgical exposure. Its size and design make it suitable for a range of orthopedic, trauma, and reconstructive procedures.
