Sinuses

Sinuses

Sinus surgery demands specific visualisation requirements. The anatomy is complex, access routes are narrow, and structures exist at various depths. Therefore, an operating microscope for sinus surgery must primarily offer one thing: flexibility in working distance. This is essential for the surgeon to keep both superficial and deeper structures clearly in focus.

Flexible Visualisation for Variable Depths

Operating in the paranasal sinuses involves navigating a three-dimensional labyrinth. The frontal sinus, maxillary sinus, ethmoid cells and sphenoid sinus are located at different levels and require varying perspectives. While the endoscope provides crucial information, the stereoscopic view through the microscope is indispensable for many surgical steps.

The key lies in the variable working distance. With a vario-lens, the surgeon can choose a working distance between 200mm and 400mm seamlessly, without needing to change the lens. This means focusing instead of reassembling, operating instead of adjusting. The time previously spent on changing lenses is now available for the actual procedure.

The swivelling binocular tube with its range of 0° to 210° allows for ergonomic working even in unusual positions. If the access angle to the field of operation changes, the tube adapts, not the surgeon. This spares the neck and maintains concentration during long surgeries.

Variable Working Distance

The vario lens or integrated vario scope allows for seamless adjustment from 200mm to 400mm or 350mm, without changing lenses, without interruption.

Motorised Control

Zoom and focus can be controlled via a foot control panel. Both hands stay on the instrument, and your gaze remains on the surgical field.

Ergonomic Swivel Tube

The range from 0° to 210° adapts to any access angle. Even during long operations, posture remains relaxed.

Increased Depth of Field

The dual iris diaphragm (SOM 4ent) or optional diaphragm ensures that everything is sharply imaged even at different levels in the surgical field.

Fanless Illumination

No swirling of dust particles, no intrusive fan noise. The integrated LED operates whisper-quietly and hygienically.
