Suction Raspatories
Suction Raspatories are surgical instruments commonly used in procedures involving the nasal or sinus cavities, particularly in rhinology and otolaryngology. They combine the functions of a rasp (a tool used to file down or shape bone or tissue) with suction capabilities. The suction function helps to clear debris, blood, or excess fluids from the surgical site, providing a clearer view for the surgeon. Suction raspatories are often used in surgeries like septoplasties or sinus surgeries to smooth bone structures while maintaining a clean and dry operating field.
