The Politzer Ear Knife is a precision-crafted surgical instrument used primarily in otologic procedures, especially those involving the tympanic membrane (eardrum). This 6.5-inch tool is designed for making delicate and accurate incisions in the ear during treatments such as paracentesis, myringotomy, or tympanostomy tube placement.
Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel, the Politzer Knife features a sharp blade with an angled shaft that facilitates optimal access and visibility within the narrow ear canal. The ergonomic design allows for superior maneuverability, making it ideal for both general ENT use and specialized microsurgery.
Often found in ENT clinics and surgical units, the Politzer Ear Knife ensures controlled incisions with minimal tissue trauma. Some variations of this instrument may include a bayonet-style shaft for increased precision.
