The Ballenger Septum Chisel is a specialized nasal instrument used primarily in septoplasty and septorhinoplasty to remove or reshape deviated portions of the bony nasal septum (the vomer and perpendicular plate of the ethmoid). It features a sharp, curved blade that allows the surgeon to make precise, controlled cuts in the dense septal bone. This instrument is essential for creating a straight, functional nasal airway by excising spurs, fractures, or thickened bone obstructing the septum.

Key Features:

  • Curved, sharp blade designed for cutting and removing bony septal deviations.

  • Allows for precise, controlled osteotomies on the perpendicular plate and vomer.

  • Essential for correcting posterior septal deviations and creating a wide nasal airway.

  • Used to harvest straight pieces of septal bone for use as grafts.

  • Provides excellent access and leverage in the deep nasal cavity.

  • A fundamental instrument for functional nasal airway surgery.
