Description

Killian Septum Elevator is a double-ended instrument designed for lifting and working with tissue during nasal and septal procedures. It measures 19 cm (7½”) in length and has a slim, balanced shape that makes it easy to hold and guide. The two working ends give the surgeon an option to change the tip being used without reaching for another instrument.

Both ends have smooth, blunt working surfaces, with a broader section near each tip that tapers into the slimmer central shaft. This shape gives the elevator a solid working surface while keeping the instrument narrow through the middle. The rounded ends can be placed against tissue without the pointed feel of a sharp instrument.

The elevator can be used for lifting and separating tissue around the nasal septum. Its long, narrow form is suited to the limited space inside the nose, while the double-ended design allows the surgeon to use whichever end is more convenient for the step being performed.

At 19 cm (7½”), the instrument provides enough reach for nasal work without being excessively long. The center section is narrower than the working ends and gives the hand a natural place to hold the instrument. The ends are aligned along the same straight shaft, so the movement of the hand translates directly to the working tip.

The instrument is made from surgical stainless steel, giving it the strength and durability needed for repeated surgical use. Before a procedure, both ends should be checked for dents, rough spots, or changes in their shape, as these can affect how the elevator moves against tissue. The shaft and central grip should also be inspected for damage, followed by proper cleaning and sterilization.

For surgeons who need a simple double-ended elevator for nasal work, Killian Septum Elevator provides a straightforward design with good reach and easy handling. Its 19 cm (7½”) length and two blunt working ends make it suitable for controlled tissue elevation and manipulation during septal procedures.
