Sklar Beckmann Adenoid Curette, Curved, #2
An 8-3/4 inch curved curette with a #2, 10mm tip, used by ENT surgeons to scrape and remove adenoid tissue during adenoidectomy.
The Sklar Beckmann Adenoid Curette is an ENT surgical instrument used to remove adenoid tissue from the nasopharynx during adenoidectomy, a common pediatric and adult ENT procedure. The curved 8-3/4 inch shaft is shaped to follow the angle of approach through the mouth and up behind the soft palate, letting the surgeon reach the adenoid pad without excessive manipulation of surrounding structures.
This listing covers the #2 tip size with a 10mm diameter loop, one of thirteen combinations of length, curvature, tip number and diameter offered across the full Beckmann range, which spans from smaller #0 tips to larger #6 tips at 18mm, giving surgeons the ability to match instrument size to the patient's anatomy and the extent of tissue to be removed.
The sharpened edge of the curette loop shears the adenoid tissue from the underlying bone with a controlled scraping motion. As with other ENT curettes in the Sklar line, it is built for repeated clinical use with standard sterilization between cases, and ENT surgical trays typically stock a spread of Beckmann curette sizes to cover the range of patients seen in practice.
