Micro Lumbar Penfield Dissector #4

Micro Lumbar Penfield Dissector – No. 4 is a precision microsurgical instrument commonly used by spine surgeons, neurosurgeons, and orthopedic surgeons during lumbar decompression and other spinal procedures. The instrument is specifically designed for atraumatic tissue dissection, epidural tissue mobilization, nerve root manipulation, and controlled separation of anatomical planes within the lumbar spine. Its No. 4 Penfield-style working tip provides a broader working surface for efficient tissue elevation and precise handling of neural structures while minimizing trauma to surrounding tissues. Featuring a precision-crafted Penfield No. 4 tip and a slender shaft, the dissector enables accurate tissue manipulation within deep and confined operative fields. The instrument is particularly useful for mobilizing nerve roots, separating epidural tissues, and accessing the intervertebral disc space during lumbar procedures. The ergonomic microsurgical handle ensures a secure grip and superior tactile feedback, allowing surgeons to maintain precise control throughout delicate spinal interventions. Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the Micro Lumbar Penfield Dissector offers excellent durability, corrosion resistance, and dependable long-term performance. The satin low-glare finish minimizes reflections under operating microscopes and surgical lighting while facilitating efficient cleaning and maintenance. Widely used in hospitals, spine centers, and teaching institutions, this instrument is an essential component of lumbar microsurgery and minimally invasive spine surgery instrument sets. Fully reusable and autoclavable, the Micro Lumbar Penfield Dissector – No. 4 is designed to withstand repeated sterilization cycles while maintaining structural integrity, tip precision, and consistent performance. Common Clinical Applications Include: Lumbar Microdiscectomy Lumbar Decompression Procedures Laminectomy Laminotomy Foraminotomy Nerve Root Mobilization Epidural Tissue Dissection Intervertebral Disc Access Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (MISS) Educational and Training Applications Specifications Feature Details Product Name Micro Lumbar Penfield Dissector – No. 4 Instrument Type Spinal Microsurgical Dissector Function Tissue Dissection and Neural Structure Manipulation Pattern Penfield No. 4 Handle Design Ergonomic Microsurgical Handle Application Lumbar Spine Surgery Material Surgical-Grade Stainless Steel Finish Satin Low-Glare Finish Sterilization Fully Sterilizable and Autoclavable Reusability Reusable Performance Precise Tissue Manipulation and Enhanced Access Frequently Asked Questions What is the Micro Lumbar Penfield Dissector – No. 4 used for?
