Nasal Gouges are specialized ENT surgical instruments designed for removing or contouring bony structures within the nasal cavity. Commonly used in septoplasty, rhinoplasty, and endoscopic sinus surgery, these instruments allow for controlled removal of nasal bone and cartilage, particularly in areas like the nasal septum, turbinates, or nasal spine.
The working end of a nasal gouge has a curved, scoop-like blade (also called a U- or V-shaped chisel), which allows the surgeon to scrape or gouge out targeted bony tissue. They come in various widths (e.g., 2 mm to 8 mm) and curvatures to suit different anatomical needs and surgical techniques.
Made from surgical-grade stainless steel, nasal gouges are durable, corrosion-resistant, and fully autoclavable. The handle is typically textured or knurled for a non-slip grip, providing surgeons with excellent tactile control during delicate operations.
