Leatherr Antegrade/Retrograde Valvulotome

The Leatherr Antegrade/Retrograde Valvulotome is a specialized vascular surgical instrument designed for controlled cutting of venous valve tissue during appropriate vascular procedures. The Leatherr pattern is available in antegrade and retrograde configurations within established cardiovascular and thoracic instrument ranges.

The current Peak Surgicals storefront identifies this product as SKU PS-OT-0894 and lists German stainless steel, reusable construction, selectable Size options, and satin, dull, or mirror finishes. The product description separately lists Model Number PS-4220, so the correct purchasing code should be verified before ordering.

Leatherr Valvulotome Pattern

The Leatherr pattern belongs to the specialized valvulotome instrument family used in vascular surgery. Unlike a general surgical knife or dissector, a valvulotome incorporates a small cutting working end intended for controlled division of venous valve tissue.

Established surgical catalogs classify the Leatherr Antegrade/Retrograde Valvulotome within cardiovascular and thoracic instrumentation. Exact working-end geometry varies between available configurations, so the required model should be selected according to the intended surgical technique.

Antegrade and Retrograde Configurations

The product name specifically identifies both antegrade and retrograde valvulotome configurations. These terms refer to the direction in which the instrument is introduced or used relative to the venous valve structures during the selected vascular procedure.

The current Peak Surgicals page does not identify which Size option corresponds to an antegrade or retrograde working end, nor does it specify the exact cutting-edge orientation for each selectable variant. Buyers should therefore confirm the required configuration before ordering.

Vascular Valve Cutting Application

Valvulotomes are used in vascular surgery when venous valve cusps require controlled division. Independent surgical instrument catalogs describe in-situ venous valvulotomes as instruments introduced in one direction and withdrawn to incise valve cusps during bypass-related vascular procedures.

The exact operative technique, vessel selection, instrument size, and direction of use should be determined by the vascular surgeon according to the procedure and anatomy.

German Stainless Steel Construction

The current Peak Surgicals specification confirms German stainless steel construction. The rigid metallic design provides the structural support required for a reusable precision vascular instrument.

The exact stainless-steel alloy grade is not stated on the current page. Hospitals, vascular surgery departments, distributors, and procurement teams requiring a specific material grade or supporting documentation should confirm that information before purchasing.

Reusable Surgical Instrument

Peak Surgicals specifically lists the Leatherr Valvulotome as reusable. Following clinical use, the instrument should be cleaned, inspected, and reprocessed according to applicable manufacturer instructions and the healthcare facility's validated procedures.

Particular attention should be given to the fine distal cutting end, shaft, and handle. Before reuse, the instrument should be inspected for deformation, corrosion, cutting-edge damage, or other visible conditions that could affect normal function.

Selectable Size Options

The live Peak Surgicals storefront includes a Size selector for this product. This indicates that multiple configurations are available.

However, the exact selectable dimensions are not exposed in the accessible product information. External Leatherr catalogs list several different overall lengths and cutting-tip configurations, but those measurements should not be assigned to the Peak Surgicals product without direct confirmation.

Satin, Dull and Mirror Finish Options

The current Peak Surgicals specification lists satin, dull, and mirror finish options. Buyers requiring a particular surface finish should confirm the selected configuration at the time of ordering.

Product Identification and SKU Verification

The current storefront displays PS-OT-0894 directly beneath the product title, while the specification table within the same product description lists PS-4220 as the model number.

Because these identifiers do not match, procurement teams should verify the correct SKU and model number before placing an order or adding this item to an inventory system.

For Vascular Surgery Departments and Procurement

The Leatherr Antegrade/Retrograde Valvulotome is relevant for vascular and cardiovascular surgery departments, hospitals, operating rooms, surgical instrument distributors, and procurement teams sourcing reusable vascular valve-cutting instruments.

For accurate purchasing, buyers should confirm the required antegrade or retrograde configuration, Size option, finish, and correct product code. Exact overall length, cutting-tip dimensions, blade orientation, stainless-steel alloy grade, and variant-specific working-end design should be confirmed before ordering because they are not stated clearly on the current Peak Surgicals page.
