small pattern Crutchfield Skull Tongs are specialized tongs made for handling bony areas around delicate neural tissue. This instrument can be used to hyperextend and immobilize the head and neck to prevent further damage and trauma in patients suffering from a cervical vertebral injury. Used alongside a trephine or drill these tongs can be inserted into burr holes that have been drilled to aid in neurosurgical procedures that require precision and delicate handling of tissue.

Galt Trephines are ideally suited for use in neurosurgical procedures. This trephine is designed to help gain access to the brain which is within the bony skull. The trephine can be used to create holes to gain entry into this area in procedures such as craniotomies. This instrument features a solidly build shaft that features a t-type handle at one end that allows for effective rotating motion while the other end features a circular blade. Additionally this instrument is available in a wide array of sizes including 12.0 mm, 16.0 mm, 18.0 mm, 22.0 mm and 25.0 mm making it the perfect fit for a variety of patient needs and surgeon preferences.
