Simon Skin Hook for Precise Tissue Retraction

1 x sharp
22cm, 8 3/4″ Fistula Hook

The SIMON Skin Hook, SKU 08-175-22, has one sharp hook and measures 22 cm, or 8 3/4 inches. Next Edge Surgical LLC identifies this model as a fistula hook within its Hooklet & Skin Hooks category. The single sharp working point gives the instrument a focused role in localized tissue engagement, while the longer shaft provides reach when the operative site is not immediately adjacent to the user’s hand.
A single-hook design can be preferable when one clearly defined point of traction is required. Instead of distributing contact across a larger surface, the operator can position the working end at a selected location on suitable tissue.
Distinctive features:
* One sharp hook: Provides a single, focused point of tissue engagement.
* 22 cm length: Offers extended reach for procedures involving a confined or less immediately accessible field.
* Fistula hook designation: Gives this model a specialized role within procedure-specific surgical sets.
* Handheld design: Allows direct placement and repositioning as exposure requirements change.
This model can complement other hooks rather than replacing broader exposure instruments. Surgical teams can select the SIMON pattern when the procedure calls for a single sharp working point and the reach of a 22 cm instrument.
For procurement professionals, differentiating instruments by working configuration can make surgical tray preparation more efficient. The single-hook arrangement also provides an alternative to the two-hook SIMON model in the same product family.
Next Edge Surgical LLC supplies these retractors for professional healthcare settings. Its single sharp hook and extended length make it a practical option when focused fistula-related tissue handling is required.
