Langenbeck periosteal elevator 7 3/4" curved blunt 6.0mm wide blade flat handle

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.

General use; follow facility protocols.
