The image shows a Key periosteal elevator, a robust orthopedic instrument made of stainless steel. It is designed with a shaped, flat chisel-like blade at one end for precise elevation of the periosteum (the thin membrane covering bones) and separation of soft tissues during surgical procedures.
The handle is hexagonal, providing a strong, non-slip grip for controlled manipulation, especially when applying pressure.
This design ensures stability and prevents instrument rolling on surgical trays.
Widely used in orthopedic, trauma, and reconstructive surgeries, the Key periosteal elevator is essential for bone preparation, exposure, and careful tissue dissection.
