The Oval Window Pick 33mm Point, Angled 30° (6 ½”) is a specialized surgical instrument designed for precision work in otologic and ENT procedures. Its angled working configuration provides controlled access to the oval window region and other confined areas of the middle ear where careful instrument positioning is important.
The instrument features a 33mm point with a 30° angled configuration. This geometry allows the working end to approach the operative area from a controlled direction while the overall 6 ½” length provides useful reach and handling during delicate procedures. The angled profile can help improve access when a straight instrument does not provide the preferred working approach.
Oval window picks are used for precise localized manipulation in specialized ear surgery. The fine working design allows the surgeon to make controlled contact with small anatomical areas while maintaining careful instrument control. The 30° angle provides an alternative working orientation for otologic procedures where access and visibility are important considerations.
The 6 ½” shaft length provides a practical balance between reach and maneuverability. Its configuration is intended for professional surgical environments where delicate handling and precise movements are required. The instrument can be included in specialized otology, ENT, and middle-ear surgical sets alongside other precision picks, knives, dissectors, and measuring instruments.
The construction is designed to provide dependable handling during repeated professional use. When manufactured as a reusable instrument, it is typically produced from surgical-grade stainless steel to provide strength, corrosion resistance, and compatibility with standard surgical instrument-processing practices. The smooth surface also supports thorough cleaning and inspection after use.
Proper instrument care is important for maintaining the precision of the working point. After each procedure, the instrument should be cleaned according to established processing procedures and inspected for bending, deformation, surface damage, or other changes that could affect performance. The pointed working end should receive particular attention during inspection because its geometry is important to accurate manipulation.
If supplied as a reusable surgical instrument, the Oval Window Pick should be sterilized using the validated method specified by the manufacturer and the healthcare facility’s approved sterilization protocol. Correct cleaning, drying, sterilization, and storage procedures help preserve the instrument’s condition and extend its usable service life.
With its 33mm point, 30° angled configuration, and 6 ½” overall length, the Oval Window Pick is a useful addition to professional otologic instrumentation. It is designed for surgeons and surgical teams who require controlled access and precise manipulation within the confined anatomical environment of the middle ear.
