Hartmann Crocodile Ear Forceps – Stainless Steel, Multiple Lengths

The Crocodile Ear Forceps, also known as Hartmann Alligator Forceps, are specialized surgical instruments used primarily in otolaryngology (ENT) for procedures involving the ear canal. Their design features a long, slender shaft with a small, serrated jaw at the distal end, resembling a crocodile's mouth, which allows for precise grasping and removal of foreign bodies or tissues from narrow spaces within the ear.
