Product Overview
The Boies Elevator is an essential orthopedic tool in rhinoplasty and trauma surgery. It is specifically designed to be inserted into the nasal cavity to elevate fractured nasal bones back into their anatomical position. Its robust construction ensures it can handle the pressure required for bone manipulation while its smooth, rounded tip protects the delicate internal mucosa.
Key Features
-
Dual-Graduated Blade: Features a flat, slightly curved blade with a rounded tip, specifically contoured to glide between the nasal septum and the fractured bone without causing secondary trauma.
-
Integrated Measurement Scale: The blade often includes etched millimeter markings, allowing the surgeon to precisely gauge the depth of insertion for accurate placement against the fracture site.
-
Heavy-Duty Handle: Equipped with a solid, ergonomic hexagonal or ribbed handle that provides a “beast-like” grip, ensuring the instrument does not slip when applying upward or lateral force.
-
Blunt Safety Tip: The edges are meticulously polished to be atraumatic, ensuring that the elevator manipulates the bone without tearing the sensitive nasal lining.
-
High-Tensile Strength: Forged from premium surgical-grade stainless steel to prevent bending or flexing under the high torque required for bone reduction.
