Langenbeck Periosteal Elevator Curved 6.0 mm Tip 19.7 cm (7.7)

Curved, Blunt Elevation for Controlled Surgical Access

The Langenbeck periosteal elevator is designed for lifting and separating periosteal tissue during surgical exposure. Its 7 3/4-inch length provides practical reach, while the curved, blunt 6.0 mm-wide blade supports controlled contact along the operative field. A flat handle offers a straightforward gripping surface for routine instrument handling. This elevator can support exposure and tissue-elevation tasks across cardiovascular, ENT, general surgery, neurosurgery, and orthopedic workflows, where a dedicated periosteal instrument is appropriate. Its focused blade profile helps clinicians work with deliberate placement rather than relying on a broader, less specialized instrument.

Use Cases

• Support periosteal elevation and exposure tasks in orthopedic procedures involving bone access.
• Assist with controlled tissue elevation during general surgery when a curved, blunt elevator is appropriate.
• Provide a dedicated elevator for exposure-related tasks in ENT procedures.
• Support surgical access and tissue retraction workflows in cardiovascular procedures as directed by the operative technique.
• Assist with periosteal elevation or related exposure tasks in neurosurgery when selected by the surgical team.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the elevator promptly after use according to facility protocols and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the curved blade, blunt tip, and flat handle for visible soil, damage, or deformation before handling and reuse.
• Handle the blade carefully during cleaning, transport, and setup to help preserve its shape and working edge.
• Store the instrument in a manner that protects the blade from impact, bending, and contact with other instruments.
