MIS ball probe 10 1/2 bayonet shaft angled left 90° 8.0mm tip, ceramic coated round handle

Angled Access for Controlled Probing and Dilation

The MIS ball probe is a 10 1/2-inch dilator and probe designed for controlled probing and dilation tasks where an angled approach can support access around the operative field. Its bayonet shaft is angled left at 90 degrees, while the 8.0 mm ball tip provides a defined functional size for instrument-guided work. The extended 10.625-inch overall length can support reach in General Surgery and Neurosurgery workflows, and the round handle is suited to routine instrument handling. Its configuration offers a practical option when direction, reach, and consistent tip dimensions are important during procedural manipulation.

Use Cases

• Probe openings, passages, or operative areas during General Surgery procedures using the defined 8 mm ball tip.
• Support dilation tasks within the Dilator & Probes instrument family where a consistent functional size is required.
• Approach structures from a left-angled direction using the 90-degree angled bayonet shaft.
• Use in Neurosurgery workflows where extended reach and an angled instrument profile support access around the operative field.
• Handle and reposition the probe during procedural steps requiring controlled probing or dilation.

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the instrument according to facility protocols and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the ball tip, angled shaft, and handle before and after use for visible damage, distortion, or surface changes.
• Handle the angled shaft and tip carefully to help prevent unintended bending or contact damage.
• Store the probe in a manner that protects the shaft, tip, and handle from impact or abrasion.
