Pituitary spoons are medical instruments used in neurosurgery. They are part of the supply class of Medical And Surgical Instruments, Equipment, And Supplies, specifically in the supply group of Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies.
Pituitary spoons are typically made of stainless steel and have a long, slender handle with a spoon-shaped tip. They are used to gently manipulate and remove tissue during pituitary gland surgery. The pituitary gland is located at the base of the brain and plays a crucial role in regulating various hormones in the body.
During pituitary surgery, the surgeon may use a pituitary spoon to carefully remove small pieces of tissue or to manipulate the surrounding structures without causing damage. The spoon-shaped tip allows for precise and controlled movements, ensuring the safety of the patient.
Pituitary spoons are sterilized before use to maintain a sterile surgical environment and prevent the risk of infection. They are an essential tool in neurosurgery and are commonly found in operating rooms and surgical supply kits.
