Sklar Anthony Mastoid Suction Tube, 3mm
A fine mastoid suction tube available in 6-1/4 and 6-1/2 inch lengths with 2mm or 3mm lumen sizes for ear surgery. It remains a routine addition to matching specialty instrument trays.
The Sklar Anthony Mastoid Suction Tube is a fine surgical suction instrument used to clear blood and fluid from the confined surgical field encountered during mastoidectomy and other ear surgery. This listing offers two variants combining length and lumen size, a 6-1/2 inch tube with a 3mm lumen and a 6-1/4 inch tube with a 2mm lumen, giving the ENT surgical team a choice between a slightly wider bore for general fluid management and a narrower bore suited to more delicate work close to sensitive middle ear structures.
Because mastoid surgery is performed under the microscope in a very small working space, suction instruments in this category are built to a much finer scale than general surgical suction tubes, balancing effective fluid clearance against the risk of the tip itself obstructing the surgeon's view or contacting delicate anatomy.
ENT departments performing regular mastoid or middle ear surgery typically keep both lumen sizes on hand within their dedicated otologic instrument tray.
