V. Mueller AU6200 Hartmann-Citelli Ear Punch Forceps | Round Cup-Shaped Jaws | 3-1/8" Working Length

The V. Mueller AU6200 is a high-precision ENT instrument designed for the delicate task of removing small amounts of bone or dense tissue in confined spaces. The Hartmann-Citelli design is characterized by its small, round cup-shaped jaws that allow for a clean, controlled "punch" or biopsy. This instrument is essential for attic exploration, clearing the aditus ad antrum, or performing a precise ossiculectomy where larger rongeurs would be too bulky or traumatic.

Featuring a 3-1/8 inch (8 cm) working length and an ultra-slim shank, the AU6200 is engineered to operate through an ear speculum under the visualization of a surgical microscope, providing the surgeon with maximum access while minimizing the obstruction of the operative field.

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• Clean-Cut Punch Geometry: The round, sharpened cups are designed to meet with 1:1 precision, ensuring a clean excision of tissue or bone without tearing, which is critical for maintaining clear surgical margins.

• Microsurgical Maneuverability: The 8cm working length is optimized for the depth of the adult and pediatric ear canal, allowing the surgeon to reach the middle ear and attic without the handle interfering with the speculum or microscope lens.

• Low-Profile Action: The mechanical linkage is designed for smooth, low-friction actuation, providing the surgeon with the "feel" necessary to distinguish between pathological tissue and healthy bone.

• Superior Line-of-Sight: The slim-line shank prevents "field crowding," ensuring that the surgical assistant and surgeon can both visualize the tip's engagement with the anatomy.

• German-Engineered Stainless Steel: Constructed from high-tensile stainless steel that maintains its sharp cutting edge and jaw alignment through thousands of high-temperature sterilization cycles.
