olive curette???? - Mags

Posted: Mar 02, 2011

I've searched and searched.... this is for nasal surgery.

Using a curved _____ (sounds like "olive") curette, the maxillary antrum was identified just posterior superior to the inferior turbinate.

Thanks!

Just a guess here... - GT

There is a Halle curette. I don't know how it's pronounced but it could possibly sound like olive--hall-e ??? It's used for sinus surgery.

how about a shape, oval?? oblong??? - jmn
