Orthopedic Periosteal Elevator 34.0 cm (13.4)

Controlled Access for Femoral Neck Handling

The 13 3/8" Mueller Type Femoral Neck Elevator is a surgical elevator designed to assist with controlled elevation and manipulation around the femoral neck. Its extended 13 3/8" profile provides useful reach for orthopedic procedures while supporting access in deeper operative fields. The instrument may also fit general surgery workflows involving careful elevation of firm anatomical structures, depending on the procedure and facility technique. Its focused elevator form helps professionals position the working end with deliberate control, supporting practical handling when access, leverage, and visibility are important during instrument-based tasks.

Use Cases

• Assist with controlled elevation around the femoral neck during orthopedic procedures.
• Support manipulation of firm anatomical structures where an elevator is appropriate.
• Provide extended reach for instrument handling in deeper operative fields.
• Use within general surgery workflows when the procedure calls for an elevator for careful elevation or positioning.
• Incorporate into surgical setup and passing workflows that require a dedicated femoral neck elevator.
