The Kavanagh Middle Cranial Fossa Hand Stabilization Instruments comprise a wide variety of forceps, micro-scissors and
crimpers all specifically designed to provide stabilization of the neurotologist’s hand during surgery.
The working action of standard surgical middle ear instruments is the lower-most instrument handle. This handle is
activated by using the surgeon’s third and fourth digits. When using standard instruments, the upper-most instrument
handle must be held still by the thumb and not moved while the lower handle is moved toward it. Thus, the surgeon
cannot stabilize his operating hand during ear surgery.

Instrumentarium’s newly designed « Hand Stable » instruments have a « reverse action » and eliminate this umber-
some surgical exercise and free the neurotologist’s opposite hand to help stabilize the prosthesis. The third and fourth
digits can be kept still, resting on the patient, while the surgeon’s thumb activates the instrument.
