Sklar Okonek-Yasargil Tumor Fork, 9 Inch
A 9 inch tumor fork from Sklar with a 3mm tip, used by neurosurgeons to lift, separate and manipulate tumor tissue during intracranial procedures.
The Sklar Okonek-Yasargil Tumor Fork is a neurosurgical instrument with a fine 3mm tip used to lift, separate and manipulate tumor tissue during intracranial procedures, particularly where a delicate touch is needed to avoid disturbing surrounding healthy tissue. The fork shaped tip allows the surgeon to gently tease tissue apart or hold a small section steady while another instrument, such as suction or bipolar forceps, is used nearby.
Measuring 9 inches, the instrument gives enough reach for deep cranial work performed through a microsurgical approach. This listing covers four variants within the Okonek-Yasargil tumor fork range, offering neurosurgical teams a choice of configurations for different stages of tumor resection. Instruments of this specialised design are stocked almost exclusively by neurosurgical departments and specialist neuro-oncology centres, typically as part of a dedicated microsurgical instrument set used for tumor and skull base procedures.
