Crile ganglion knife/dissector 8 1/2 double-ended hexagonal handle

Controlled Reach for Focused Dissection Work

The Crile ganglion knife/dissector is a double-ended dissector designed for controlled tissue separation and related dissection work. Its 8 1/2-inch format provides useful working reach, while the hexagonal handle offers a defined hand-contact profile for deliberate instrument handling. In general surgery, it can support dissection tasks where access and controlled manipulation matter; in neurosurgery, the named ganglion knife/dissector form suits specialized dissection workflows requiring careful instrument placement. The two-ended configuration keeps two working ends within one instrument, supporting focused handling across procedural settings.

Use Cases

• Support dissection and tissue-separation tasks in general surgery.
• Use the ganglion knife/dissector form for focused dissection work in neurosurgical workflows.
• Apply the 8 1/2-inch instrument length where additional working reach is useful.
• Use either end of the double-ended design according to the immediate dissection task.
• Maintain a deliberate hand position using the hexagonal handle during instrument handling.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the instrument according to facility protocols and the applicable manufacturer instructions for use.
• Inspect both working ends and the hexagonal handle before and after use for visible soil, damage, or irregularities.
• Handle and store the double-ended instrument in a manner that protects its working ends from contact damage.
