Description

The Galvao Nipple Marker is designed to help create a consistent circular outline when marking the nipple area during breast procedures. Its open cylindrical body sits around the area being marked, while the raised edges and internal marking points help establish a clear reference for the selected diameter.

Two sizes are available: 40 mm Ø standard and 50 mm Ø large. The different diameters allow the appropriate marker to be selected according to the size of the area being planned. Having two options also makes it easier to choose a size that matches the surgical marking requirements.

The marker has a circular band with several small projecting points around the inner working area. These points are positioned to help transfer the selected outline when a suitable surgical marking method is used. The open centre keeps the marked area visible while the instrument is being positioned.

The outer band provides a firm surface to hold during placement, while the upright section gives the user an additional point for handling. Its simple construction means there are no complicated moving parts to adjust before marking. The marker can be positioned directly over the area and held steady while the outline is created.

The 40 mm standard version provides the smaller marking diameter, while the 50 mm large version gives a wider circular reference. Selecting between the two allows the marker to be matched to the planned size rather than relying on a single fixed diameter.

The instrument has a metal construction intended for professional surgical use and repeated reprocessing. Each marker should be carefully checked before use, including the circular band, inner points, raised handle section, and overall shape. The working edges should be free from bending or distortion so the marker can sit evenly during use.

The Galvao Nipple Marker provides two circular size options in a compact design for consistent marking during breast procedures.
