Description

Antrum Grasping Forceps are long, slender instruments crucial to ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) surgery, specifically within the field of otolaryngology. They feature an alligator-style jaw mechanism, often with fenestrated (windowed) cups at the working tip. The instrument is designed to navigate the narrow passages of the nasal cavity to reach the paranasal sinuses, particularly the maxillary antrum. Its primary purpose is to grasp and remove soft tissue, polyps, or other abnormal growths from these delicate areas during procedures like Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) and nasal polypectomies.
