Sklar Hardy Dissector, Sharpened Inner Edge, Right
A 9-3/4 inch Sklar Hardy dissector with a sharpened inner edge, right sided, used by neurosurgeons for fine dissection during skull base surgery.
The Sklar Hardy Dissector is a 9-3/4 inch instrument with a sharpened inner edge on its right sided blade, part of the Hardy family of instruments developed for trans-sphenoidal pituitary and skull base surgery. The sharpened edge allows the neurosurgeon to perform fine cutting dissection within the narrow, deep surgical corridor used to access the pituitary gland, where instrument length and precision both matter given the confined working space and proximity to critical structures.
This pattern is offered by Sklar in two sizes, giving surgeons an option in blade length to suit the specific approach and patient anatomy. Neurosurgeons use dissectors like this as part of a dedicated pituitary or trans-sphenoidal surgery instrument set, typically alongside other Hardy pattern instruments such as spoons, curettes and specula designed for the same procedure.
The instrument is intended for repeated sterilized use as reusable surgical grade equipment within a neurosurgical department.
