Surgical Crego Periosteal Elevator – 11-934-15

15.5cm, 6″
At 15.5 cm, the Crego Periosteal Elevator is shaped for controlled work along the shaft of long bones. Its curved blade is designed to track the circumference of the bone as the surgeon works the periosteum free, which is particularly useful in pediatric and orthopaedic exposure.
15.5 cm overall length suited to close, controlled handling
Curved blade profile designed to follow the contour of a long bone shaft
Smooth working edge intended to separate periosteum without gouging the bone surface
Commonly associated with pediatric orthopaedic exposure of the femur and tibia
This elevator sits within our range of bone surgery instruments built for circumferential rather than flat elevation, a distinction that matters when the bone in question is round rather than broad and flat. The curve helps the blade stay against the bone surface through the full sweep of the motion instead of skating off at the edges.
Because pediatric bone is more delicate than adult cortical bone, having an elevator sized and curved appropriately for smaller shafts helps keep the dissection controlled from the first pass. Order the Crego Periosteal Elevator today.
