The Sachs Dural Hook, 8 1/2" Blunt is a neurosurgical instrument designed for the gentle retraction and manipulation of the dura mater during surgical procedures. The blunt tip ensures minimal trauma to the delicate dura and surrounding tissues. At 8 1/2 inches in length, it offers sufficient reach and control for accessing deeper or more confined spaces in spinal or cranial surgeries. The tool is often used in procedures like craniotomies, laminectomies, or other operations where precise and atraumatic handling of the dura is required.
