Rhoton Dissector

The Rhoton Dissector is a specialized microsurgical instrument designed for fine, atraumatic tissue dissection in neurosurgery. Developed based on the pioneering techniques of Dr. Albert Rhoton Jr., this instrument enables surgeons to work with delicate neurovascular structures under high magnification with absolute precision and safety.

Available in a wide range of tip shapes—including straight, angled, spatula, hook, right-angled, and J-shaped—Rhoton Dissectors are widely used in skull base surgery, brainstem procedures, cranial nerve exposure, and tumor resections. The dissectors often feature a bayonet-style shaft that keeps the surgeon’s hand out of the visual field, ensuring unobstructed view through the surgical microscope.

Rhoton Dissectors are manufactured from premium German stainless steel or lightweight titanium, and may include features such as color-coded handles, diamond-coated tips, or non-slip grips for enhanced control and identification. These tools are a core component of any advanced neurosurgical or micro-instrumentation set.
