The Dermatology & Holloware 6″ Benson Pyloric Stenosis Spreader is a specialized reusable surgical instrument developed for the safe and controlled separation of the pyloric muscle during Ramstedt pyloromyotomy, the standard surgical treatment for hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. Precision-engineered for pediatric surgery, this instrument enables surgeons to gently spread the divided muscle fibers without damaging the underlying gastric or duodenal mucosa, supporting safe and effective surgical outcomes.

With an overall length of 6 inches, the Benson Pyloric Stenosis Spreader is compact, lightweight, and ideally suited for the delicate nature of infant and pediatric surgical procedures. Its balanced design provides excellent maneuverability within the limited operative field, allowing surgeons to perform precise tissue manipulation while maintaining optimal control throughout the procedure.

The instrument features atraumatic spreading jaws that are carefully designed to gently separate the incised pyloric muscle fibers after the initial incision has been made. The smooth, rounded tips help minimize tissue trauma while providing adequate expansion of the pyloromyotomy incision. This controlled spreading technique assists surgeons in completing the procedure safely while reducing the risk of accidental mucosal perforation.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the 6″ Benson Pyloric Stenosis Spreader offers exceptional strength, corrosion resistance, and durability. The high-quality stainless steel construction maintains structural integrity through repeated clinical use and sterilization cycles, making it a dependable reusable instrument for hospitals and pediatric surgical centers. Its finely polished finish minimizes tissue adherence, facilitates efficient cleaning, and supports compliance with modern sterilization and infection-control protocols.

The ergonomic handle is designed to provide a secure and comfortable grip, allowing surgeons to apply controlled spreading force with excellent tactile feedback. Its lightweight construction helps reduce hand fatigue during delicate procedures while improving precision and surgical confidence.

The 6″ Benson Pyloric Stenosis Spreader is widely used in pediatric surgery, neonatal surgery, pediatric general surgery, and gastrointestinal surgery. It is primarily intended for pyloromyotomy procedures performed to treat infants diagnosed with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis, but it may also be used in other procedures requiring delicate tissue spreading.

Designed for repeated professional use, this reusable instrument is fully autoclavable and compatible with standard hospital steam sterilization methods. Its durable stainless steel construction ensures consistent performance and long service life, providing healthcare facilities with a reliable and cost-effective surgical solution.

Each Benson Pyloric Stenosis Spreader undergoes rigorous quality control inspections to verify dimensional accuracy, smooth jaw movement, structural integrity, and surface finish. These strict manufacturing standards ensure dependable clinical performance and consistent surgical precision.

Combining precision engineering, atraumatic functionality, and superior craftsmanship, the Dermatology & Holloware 6″ Benson Pyloric Stenosis Spreader is an essential instrument for pediatric surgeons performing pyloromyotomy and other delicate gastrointestinal procedures.
