Yasargil Galea Hook – Stainless Steel Neurosurgical Retractor

The Yasargil Galea Hook is a specialized surgical instrument used primarily in neurosurgical procedures to retract the galea aponeurotica, the tough layer of dense fibrous tissue that covers the upper part of the cranium. This retraction facilitates better exposure of the surgical field, particularly during cranial operations.
