FK-WO TORS Laryngo-Pharyngoscope Retractor

Contents start

Accurate diagnosis and therapy are at your fingertips with the FK-WO TORS Laryngo-Pharyngoscope retractor. The brilliant exposure of the operating field will exceed your expectations. While restrictions to the surgeon’s movements have been minimised with the scope’s innovative design and thoughtful features.

Clear visualisation of all areas of the aero digestive tract in transoral surgery (TORS), especially in the postcricoid, hypopharynx and tongue base, is a challenge in laryngology. Although the endolarynx is accessible with a standard laryngoscope, their small diameter and tubular design limits the surgeon's instrument movements. These shortcomings are fully addressed by the FK Laryngo-Pharyngoscope retractor.

Key Benefits
Product-Details

Wide exposure of the operating field in the oropharynx

The FK-WO TORS Laryngo-Pharyngoscope retractor provides an optimal view of the operation field with a wide movement area for robotic or hand instruments.

Fixation of tongue

The tongue retractor blades provide wide exposure of the supraglottis, gently fixing the tongue clear of view while avoiding collisions between the retractor and instruments.

Clear view to the operating field

Smoke evacuation and additional light guides can be attached for better illumination and image clarity, supporting accurate diagnosis and therapy.

New illumination clip

To get improved illumination during the insertion of the retractor, the specially developed light clip has a lateral connection for light cables enabling free movement of the surgeon’s hand instruments as well as of the da Vinci® Robotic Surgical System.

Adjustable angles of the blade in three dimensions

The blade is adjustable in width, height and depth reducing the need to adjust the head during laryngology. This saves time by quickly exposing anatomical structures within the whole operating field and a giving better overview of all areas.

Unique non-tubular design for a new dimension in access

The unique non-tubular design of the FK Laryngo-Pharyngoscope retractor enables a new dimension in access to the tongue base, larynx and hypopharynx over and above a traditional laryngoscope.

Versatility in blades

Different shapes of blades exposing the base of tongue, larynx and hypopharynx can be attached to the frame giving the surgeon plenty of room to operate and facilitates the individual adjustments of the pharynx, larynx or vallecula.
