This D'Errico hypophysal forceps delivers cupped-jaw grasping for selective tumor tissue removal during transsphenoidal pituitary surgery. The 6mm cupped jaw accommodates soft tumor tissue without crushing, and the 220mm bayonet configuration provides offset visualization during deep sellar work. The 90mm working length supports controlled maneuvering within the sphenoid cavity.

Features & Benefits

• Cupped jaw design grasps soft pituitary tumor tissue safely
• 6mm jaw accommodates selective gland tissue removal
• Bayonet configuration (220mm) improves deep sellar visualization
• 90mm working length supports precise tumor handling

The Hardy pituitary spoon is a curved microsurgical instrument designed for controlled removal of pituitary adenomas and tissue during transsphenoidal hypophysectomy. The 4mm curved bowl geometry and bayonet shape allow precise tissue cup and removal from within the sella turcica. The 125mm working length provides adequate reach while maintaining tactile control in confined sellar spaces.

Features & Benefits

• 4mm curved spoon geometry for controlled tissue capture and removal
• Bayonet configuration supports transsphenoidal approach
• 125mm working length reaches deep sellar anatomy
• 241mm overall length provides balanced surgeon control

The bayonet-offset design of this Yasargil micro curette permits angled approach to tissue surfaces within confined skull base and ventricular spaces. The bayonet geometry offsets the working tip from the instrument shaft, improving visibility while reducing instrument shadow. The curette edge provides delicate scraping for dural attachments and inflammatory tissue removal.

Features & Benefits

• Bayonet offset improves visibility in confined skull base spaces
• 184mm length reaches deep ventricular tissue planes
• Curette edge for gentle tissue debridement and dural scraping
• Stainless steel durability across repeated skull base procedures
