Heuwieser antrum grasping forceps working length 130mm curved down 90º cup jaws open backwards to 120º ring handle

Precision Access for Antrum Procedures

Navigating the confined anatomical spaces of the antrum requires instruments that combine precise reach with reliable tissue control. The Heuwieser antrum grasping forceps addresses this challenge with a specialized design optimized for both ENT and General Surgery applications. Featuring a 130mm working length and a distinct 90º downward curve, this instrument facilitates improved visualization and access to posterior structures. The cup jaws, which open backwards to 120º, allow for effective engagement and retrieval of tissue or foreign bodies in tight quarters. Paired with a standard ring handle for familiar ergonomic control, this forceps supports delicate manipulation while maintaining the stability needed for efficient procedural workflow.

Use Cases

• Grasping and removing tissue or debris within the maxillary antrum during ENT procedures
• Facilitating access to posterior cavities where straight instruments lack sufficient angle or visibility
• Supporting general surgical tasks requiring curved instrumentation for deep-tissue manipulation
• Retrieving foreign objects from confined anatomical spaces with controlled jaw movement
