Sklar Hardy Implant Fork, 3 Teeth, 9-3/4 Inch
A 3 teeth, 9-3/4 inch Sklar Hardy implant fork, used by neurosurgeons to position implant material during pituitary and skull base surgery.
The Sklar Hardy Implant Fork is a 9-3/4 inch instrument with a 3 tooth tip, part of the Hardy family of instruments developed for trans-sphenoidal pituitary and skull base surgery. The forked tip is designed to hold and position implant or packing material within the surgical cavity following tumor removal, giving the surgeon precise control when placing material in the confined space accessed through the trans-sphenoidal approach.
This is a single size listing as offered by Sklar for this pattern, and it is typically used alongside other Hardy pattern instruments such as dissectors, enucleators, spoons and curettes throughout the same procedure. Neurosurgeons performing pituitary and skull base surgery rely on a complete matched set of Hardy instruments so each step of the procedure, from tumor removal to reconstruction, has the correct purpose built tool available.
The instrument is made from surgical grade stainless steel and intended for repeated sterilized use.
