Surgical Cushing Bone Curette – 11-840-23

23.5 cm, 9%

Pituitary Spoon, malleable, silver-plated

Some curettes are built for scraping bone, and others, like the 11-840-23, are built for something closer to careful lifting and separation. Known as a Cushing pattern pituitary spoon, this instrument uses a malleable, silver plated blade that can be gently shaped by the surgeon to match the contour of the surgical field rather than forcing the field to match a fixed instrument shape.
At 23.5 cm, the shaft provides the reach needed for deeper procedures, while cup sizes ranging from 5 mm up to 12 mm let the surgeon match the working end to the scale of tissue being addressed. This instrument sits within our collection of bone surgery instruments, though its malleable construction sets it apart from the more rigid curette patterns on the same tray.
The ability to bend the blade to a specific angle mid procedure gives the surgeon flexibility that a fixed shape cannot offer, particularly useful when working around structures that do not present a straightforward, direct approach. Manufactured with a silver plated finish and built for repeated autoclave sterilization, the 11-840-23 fits into standard surgical processing without added handling requirements.
For procedures where anatomy does not cooperate with a rigid instrument, this malleable design offers a practical workaround.
