The Neurosurgery Olivecrona Spatula 11x13mm, Concave, 7¼″ is a specialized microsurgical instrument designed for precise and atraumatic manipulation of delicate brain tissue during advanced neurosurgical procedures. Featuring a carefully engineered concave spatula blade measuring 11mm x 13mm and an overall length of 7¼ inches, this instrument provides neurosurgeons with excellent reach, controlled tissue support, and superior handling during procedures requiring accurate exposure of critical anatomical structures.
Neurosurgical procedures often require controlled brain retraction to provide adequate visualization while minimizing stress on fragile neural tissues. The Olivecrona Spatula Concave is designed to support gentle tissue elevation by creating a stable contact surface that helps distribute pressure evenly. This reduces the risk of localized compression and allows surgeons to maintain a clear operative field while protecting surrounding neurological structures.
The concave 11mm x 13mm spatula blade features a curved working surface that provides enhanced support and stability during tissue manipulation. The recessed contour helps cradle delicate tissue while allowing controlled positioning and elevation. This design is particularly beneficial in procedures where precise placement and secure tissue support are required during microsurgical dissection and exposure.
With an overall length of 7¼ inches (approximately 18.4 cm), the instrument offers an excellent balance between reach and precision. The elongated shaft allows access to deeper surgical locations while maintaining comfortable hand positioning and optimal control. This makes the spatula suitable for cranial procedures, skull base approaches, vascular neurosurgery, tumour resections, aneurysm surgery, and other complex intracranial operations.
The smooth, atraumatic blade surface allows gentle interaction with brain tissue while reducing the possibility of unnecessary trauma. The carefully polished working end facilitates smooth insertion, repositioning, and removal during surgery. Its precise construction provides excellent tactile feedback, enabling surgeons to make controlled adjustments with confidence.
Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the Neurosurgery Olivecrona Spatula 11x13mm, Concave, 7¼″ delivers exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term reliability. The high-quality construction maintains the instrument’s shape, alignment, and smooth finish through repeated cleaning, disinfection, and steam autoclave sterilization cycles.
The ergonomic design provides a comfortable and secure grip, allowing precise handling during lengthy neurosurgical procedures. Its balanced weight distribution minimizes hand fatigue and supports stable instrument control during microscope-assisted operations. The polished stainless steel finish also allows efficient cleaning and helps maintain strict infection control standards in surgical environments.
The Olivecrona Concave Spatula is widely used in brain surgery, cranial microsurgery, skull base procedures, cerebrovascular surgery, aneurysm clipping, tumour removal, epilepsy surgery, and other advanced neurosurgical applications. Its concave blade configuration provides surgeons with reliable tissue support when controlled retraction and precise exposure are required.
Fully reusable and compatible with standard hospital sterilization protocols, this neurosurgical spatula is designed for consistent performance in demanding clinical environments. Its precision-engineered blade, durable construction, and ergonomic design make it an essential component of professional neurosurgical instrument sets.
