Milligan dissector 8 1/2 double-ended angled and curved blades hexagonal handle

Controlled Access for Versatile Tissue Dissection

The Milligan dissector is a double-ended surgical instrument designed for controlled tissue dissection and separation. Its 8 1/2-inch length supports reach within the operative field, while the angled and curved blades provide different working orientations for adapting to access and visualization needs. The hexagonal handle offers defined hand positioning during manipulation, helping support deliberate instrument handling in General Surgery and Neurosurgery workflows. With two blade configurations in one instrument, it can help reduce the need to exchange instruments during tasks that call for changing angles or approaches, while maintaining a familiar dissector format.

Use Cases

• Use the angled blade for dissection tasks where the operative approach benefits from an offset working orientation.
• Use the curved blade when the working path or tissue plane calls for a contoured instrument profile.
• Apply the double-ended configuration across General Surgery tasks that require changing blade orientation during dissection.
• Support Neurosurgery instrument handling where controlled access and careful adjustment of the working angle are important.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the dissector promptly after use in accordance with facility protocols and the applicable instrument instructions for use.
• Inspect both angled and curved blades, as well as the hexagonal handle, for residue, damage, or distortion before reuse.
• Handle the blade ends carefully during cleaning, transport, and setup to help protect their working profiles.
• Store the instrument securely so the blade ends are protected from contact with other instruments.
