9 1/2″ Toennis Grooved Dissector Blunt/Blunt – Tapered

9 1/2″ Toennis Grooved Dissector – Blunt/Blunt, Tapered is a precision microsurgical instrument commonly used by neurosurgeons, spine surgeons, and microsurgical specialists during cranial and spinal procedures.

The instrument is specifically designed for blunt tissue dissection, atraumatic separation of tissue planes, and manipulation of delicate neural and vascular structures. Its double-ended configuration features tapered blunt tips that facilitate gentle tissue handling while minimizing the risk of trauma to surrounding anatomy.

The grooved working surfaces enhance instrument control and assist in maintaining precise positioning during microsurgical procedures. The tapered tip design allows accurate access to confined operative fields and supports controlled dissection around critical anatomical structures.

With blunt tips at both ends, the instrument enables versatile use for tissue elevation, neurovascular dissection, and separation of delicate membranes without cutting or penetrating adjacent tissues.

With an overall length of 9 1/2 inches (approximately 24 cm), the dissector provides extended reach and excellent maneuverability within deep surgical corridors.

The ergonomic handle design ensures a secure grip and superior tactile feedback, allowing surgeons to maintain precise control under magnification.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the Toennis Grooved Dissector offers excellent durability, corrosion resistance, and dependable long-term performance. The satin low-glare finish minimizes reflections under surgical microscopes and operating room lighting while facilitating efficient cleaning and maintenance.

Fully reusable and autoclavable, the 9 1/2″ Toennis Grooved Dissector – Blunt/Blunt, Tapered is designed to withstand repeated sterilization cycles while maintaining structural integrity, tip precision, and consistent performance.
