Cottle Fishtail Shaped Osteotome

The Cottle Fishtail Shaped Osteotome is a unique rhinoplasty instrument named for its distinctive, forked “fishtail” tip. This design is specifically used for performing a transverse (root) osteotomy at the nasofrontal junction—the high point where the nasal bones meet the forehead. The forked tip straddles the nasal bones, allowing the surgeon to apply controlled force to create a clean, complete fracture across both bones simultaneously. This instrument is essential for mobilizing the entire nasal pyramid in certain rhinoplasty techniques or for correcting specific high nasal deviations.

Key Features:

• Distinctive forked “fishtail” tip designed to engage both nasal bones simultaneously.

• Specifically used for performing a transverse root osteotomy at the nasofrontal junction.

• Allows for controlled, complete fracture of both nasal bones with a single, precise strike.

• Essential for mobilizing the entire nasal bony pyramid in specific advanced rhinoplasty techniques.
