Description
APPROPRIATE PROSTHESIS LENGTH
Consistent and accurate sizing of a prosthesis is critical for postoperative hearing results: A prosthesis that is too short involves the risk of implant dislocation or migration. A prosthesis that is too long, can cause undesirable strain to the sensitive annular ligament of the stapes footplate.
TWO VERSIONS OF SIZING DISK
KURZ has developed a precision measuring system specially for determining the length of KURZ Tympanoplasty Prostheses. With the aid of various sizers, which are attached to a practical disk, the surgeon can quickly and reliably determine the length of the prosthesis.
Two versions of sizing disks are available:
– 8 sizers for total prosthesis
– 6 sizers for partial prosthesis
FEATURES FOR SIMPLIFIED INTRAOPERATIVE HANDLING
Simple intraoperative handling of sizers is ensured by their light weight and ideal balance. In addition, elegant design provides optimal visibility.
On the back of the disk there are templates to determine the minimum size of transplants – e.g. cartilage or fascia – for the placement between the tympanic membrane and the prosthesis. The disk for partial prostheses also features a device for expanding the bells of BELL Prostheses.
Each disk is packed singly in sterile packaging. Each practical dispenser box contains 10 sizer disks.
