The Hartmann Ear Forceps, also known as Alligator Forceps, are essential ENT surgical tools designed for precise manipulation in narrow and delicate areas such as the ear canal. Commonly used in otolaryngology, these forceps are ideal for removing foreign objects, cerumen (earwax), and granulation tissue, as well as for placing and retrieving ear tubes, dressings, and packing material during procedures like myringotomy.
Named after the German physician Arthur Hartmann, these forceps are crafted from high-quality surgical stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance. The serrated tips ensure a firm grip on materials, while the slender shaft provides excellent reach without compromising precision.
These forceps are fully autoclavable, reusable, and available in various lengths to suit different surgical needs.
