Thoraco-Lumbar IVD Curette #6 Straight 15.0 cm

The Thoraco-Lumbar Intervertebral Disc (IVD) Curette is a specialized surgical instrument designed for precise disc space preparation during spinal procedures. This specific model features a straight configuration with a #6 tip, offering optimal control and visibility for surgeons working in the thoracic and lumbar regions. Measuring 15.0 cm in length, it provides adequate reach while maintaining maneuverability within confined anatomical spaces. The curette’s design facilitates effective removal of residual nucleus pulposus material and cartilage endplates, ensuring a clean bed for subsequent fusion or implant placement. Its robust construction supports repeated sterilization cycles, making it a reliable tool for high-volume hospital and ambulatory surgery center environments.

• Preparation of intervertebral disc spaces prior to fusion procedures
