Adson nerve hook 8" angled 90º 1 blunt prong 4.0mm wide round handle

Controlled Access for General Surgical Dissection

The Adson nerve hook is a hand-held surgical hook designed for controlled lifting, positioning, and retraction of delicate structures during general surgery. Its 8-inch length provides useful reach, while the 90º angled shaft helps present the blunt single prong at a practical working orientation. The 4.0 mm wide blunt tip supports careful contact when a defined point of engagement is needed without relying on a sharp hook. A round handle offers a familiar grip profile for measured instrument control, helping integrate the hook into dissection, exposure, and tissue-handling workflows where access and visibility matter.

Use Cases

• Lift or gently position nerves and other delicate structures during general surgical dissection.
• Support localized retraction where the 90º angle helps orient the blunt prong toward the working field.
• Assist with exposure in deeper or less direct operative areas using the 8-inch reach.
• Use the 4.0 mm blunt prong for controlled engagement when a broad, non-sharp contact point is appropriate.
