Cottle Walsham Septum Forceps 22.9cm

The Cottle Walsham Septum Forceps 22.9cm are specialized nasal surgical forceps designed for controlled straightening and manipulation of the nasal septum during plastic, reconstructive, and related nasal procedures. The instrument has a confirmed overall length of 9 inches (22.9 cm), providing an extended working profile for access to septal structures while maintaining manual control from the handle.

The current Peak Surgicals listing identifies this instrument as Cottle Walsham Septum Straightening Forceps and carries SKU PS-RS-00175. Its clearly defined pattern and length make it suitable for surgical teams and procurement departments assembling or replacing instruments within nasal and plastic surgery sets.

Designed for Septum Straightening

The defining function stated on the current product page is septum straightening. The Cottle-Walsham pattern provides a dedicated instrument configuration for controlled manipulation of septal structures during nasal surgery.

The exact method of application, amount of corrective force, and instrument position should always be determined by the operating surgeon according to the patient's anatomy and the planned surgical technique.

22.9cm Overall Length

The forceps have a confirmed overall length of 9 inches / 22.9 cm. This measurement provides an important reference for surgeons and procurement teams comparing septum forceps for rhinoplasty, reconstructive nasal surgery, or other dedicated nasal instrument sets.

The current product description does not separately state the working shaft length, handle dimensions, or jaw length, so no additional measurements are assumed.

Cottle-Walsham Septum Pattern

The Cottle-Walsham designation identifies the specific surgical pattern of these septum straightening forceps. This allows buyers to distinguish the instrument from other septal forceps that may use different jaw profiles, lengths, or handling configurations.

For surgical set standardization, both the instrument pattern and confirmed 22.9 cm overall length should be checked against the surgeon's preferred configuration before ordering.

Nasal and Plastic Surgery Application

The instrument is listed within the plastic surgery instrument context and is specifically described as a septum straightening forceps. It is therefore relevant to nasal plastic and reconstructive procedures where controlled manipulation of the septum is required.

Final instrument selection should depend on the operative approach, septal anatomy, surgeon preference, and the other instruments included in the surgical set.

Stainless Steel Instrument Construction

The current page title identifies this Cottle Walsham Septum instrument as stainless steel. Stainless-steel construction provides the rigid instrument form expected for professional reusable surgical forceps.

The exact stainless-steel grade or alloy designation is not provided in the current product description. Hospitals or procurement teams requiring a specific material specification should confirm the exact grade before purchase.

Selectable Size Option

A Size selector is available on the live product page. The confirmed description states an overall length of 9 inches (22.9 cm), while additional numerical details for selectable options are not exposed in the accessible product text.

Buyers should therefore review the selected option before completing an order, especially when matching the instrument to an existing nasal or reconstructive surgery tray.
