Orthopedic Periosteal Elevator 38.1 cm (15.0)

Extended Reach for Controlled Elevation Tasks

The Gorilla Elevator is a surgical elevator intended for controlled lifting and separation during operative work. Its 15-inch overall length provides extended reach when access or working distance is important, while the 9-inch handle offers a defined handling profile for instrument selection and setup. The named 1/2-inch dimension further identifies this configuration within the elevator family. In General Surgery, it can support focused elevation tasks within an organized instrument workflow. In Neurosurgery, it may be selected for similarly careful manipulation when an elevator is appropriate to the procedure, without implying exclusive use in either specialty.

Use Cases

• Support controlled elevation tasks in General Surgery when an elevator is appropriate to the operative approach.
• Provide extended reach for procedures where a 15-inch overall instrument length suits the working distance.
• Support careful elevation and separation tasks in Neurosurgery when selected for the procedure.
• Use the 9-inch handle as a practical reference when organizing instruments for handling and access requirements.
