Penfield Dissector Size 3 for General Surgery Dissection and Tissue Separation

Focused Dissection and Tissue Separation Across Surgical Workflows

The Penfield Dissector Size 3 is a surgical dissector intended for general surgery dissection and tissue separation. Its focused instrument profile supports careful handling when the operative task requires separating or mobilizing tissue with a dedicated dissector rather than a cutting instrument. The same product family is relevant to approved General Surgery and Neurosurgery workflows, where controlled instrument use and clear access to the working area are important. As part of a standard surgical instrument set, it can help organize dissection tasks and provide a purpose-specific option for tissue separation during procedure preparation and execution.

Use Cases

• Separating tissue planes during General Surgery dissection tasks.
• Supporting tissue handling and mobilization where a dedicated dissector is appropriate.
• Using within Neurosurgery workflows for dissection and tissue separation tasks.
• Maintaining a purpose-specific instrument option for controlled surgical dissection.

Care & Handling

• Clean the instrument according to facility procedures and the applicable manufacturer instructions.
• Inspect the dissector before and after use for visible soil, damage, or changes that could affect handling.
• Handle the instrument carefully during cleaning, transport, and setup to help protect its working end.
• Store in a suitable instrument environment according to facility protocols.
