Myrtle Leaf Probe Multiple Lengths (13 cm to 20 cm)
Features and Description:
The Myrtle Leaf Probe is a specialized diagnostic instrument used for the exploration of wounds, fistulas, and anatomical tracts. Because it features a unique leaf-shaped handle, this tool provides surgeons with superior grip and tactile feedback during delicate examinations. Consequently, the clinician can assess the depth and direction of cavities with a high level of precision and control.
Furthermore, the distal end features an atraumatic bulbous tip. Therefore, the instrument navigates sensitive tissue planes safely without the risk of accidental perforation or trauma.
Key Features
- Ergonomic Myrtle Leaf Handle: The flattened, leaf-shaped base ensures a secure and non-slip grip. As a result, the surgeon maintains total stability even when wearing surgical gloves in moist environments.
- Atraumatic Rounded Tip: A smooth, bulbous distal end facilitates safe passage through narrow pathways. For this reason, it is an ideal choice for exploring sensitive ducts and fistula tracts.
- Superior Tactile Sensitivity: The slender shaft transmits the slightest internal resistance directly to the user’s hand. In addition, this high sensitivity helps clinicians identify foreign bodies or internal obstructions.
- Four Standard Lengths: We offer this probe in lengths ranging from 13 cm to 20 cm. Thus, you can select the perfect size for superficial wound care or deep-cavity exploration.
- Premium Stainless Steel Build: We manufacture each Myrtle Leaf probe from high-quality surgical steel for maximum durability. Moreover, the instrument remains fully autoclavable and highly resistant to corrosion.

Primary Applications
Surgeons frequently utilize the Myrtle Leaf probe across various medical disciplines. For example, it is a staple tool in:
- General Surgery: Exploring abscesses and assessing the extent of complex fistulous tracts.
- ENT Surgery: Navigating narrow salivary ducts or exploring sinus cavities.
- Wound Management: Measuring the depth of undermined tissue and tracking chronic sinus tracts.
- Emergency Medicine: Providing a reliable method for assessing the trajectory of puncture wounds.
Why Choose the Myrtle Leaf Probe?
This instrument stands out because of its enhanced handle ergonomics and professional reliability. Since the flat leaf-shaped base prevents the probe from rolling in the hand, it offers more control than standard cylindrical models. Finally, by integrating these high-grade stainless steel probes into your inventory, you provide your team with a dependable and highly sensitive tool for every diagnostic challenge.
