The ENT 6 1/2″ Neivert Knife Guide and Retractor is a specialized surgical instrument developed to meet the demanding requirements of modern ENT and facial plastic surgery. Combining the functions of a knife guide and soft tissue retractor in a single instrument, it enables surgeons to perform precise incisions while maintaining excellent exposure of the surgical field. This dual-function design enhances procedural efficiency and reduces the need for frequent instrument changes during surgery.

Widely used in rhinoplasty, septoplasty, nasal reconstruction, septal correction, and other otolaryngology procedures, the Neivert Knife Guide and Retractor assists surgeons in creating controlled, accurate dissections while protecting adjacent soft tissues. By guiding the surgical blade along the intended incision path and simultaneously retracting surrounding tissue, the instrument contributes to improved precision and safer tissue handling.

With an overall length of 6 1/2 inches (approximately 16.5 cm), the instrument offers excellent maneuverability within the confined anatomy of the nasal cavity. Its compact size provides optimal balance and control, making it particularly suitable for delicate nasal surgeries where precision is essential. The ergonomic handle allows for a secure grip, reducing hand fatigue during prolonged procedures and enabling confident manipulation.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the ENT 6 1/2″ Neivert Knife Guide and Retractor delivers exceptional strength, corrosion resistance, and long-lasting performance. It is engineered to withstand repeated sterilization cycles without losing its precision or structural integrity, making it a dependable choice for hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, and specialty ENT clinics.

The instrument features a smooth satin finish that minimizes glare from operating room lights, improving visualization during microsurgical procedures. Carefully polished atraumatic working surfaces help minimize tissue trauma while ensuring consistent and controlled retraction. Its precision craftsmanship supports accurate surgical techniques and enhances the overall safety of nasal reconstructive procedures.

The Neivert Knife Guide and Retractor is commonly used by ENT surgeons, otolaryngologists, facial plastic surgeons, and reconstructive specialists performing both cosmetic and functional nasal surgeries. Whether correcting a deviated septum, performing a rhinoplasty, or reconstructing nasal structures after trauma, this instrument provides dependable performance and excellent surgical control.

Designed for repeated professional use, the instrument is fully autoclavable and reusable, meeting modern sterilization and infection control standards. Its durable construction and dual-purpose functionality make it an indispensable addition to any ENT surgical instrument set.
