Its trocar-style tip and 65 cm shaft enable passage through fascia and subcutaneous planes and allow the tubing to be guided during advancement.
Common Applications
- Creation of subcutaneous tunnels for cerebrospinal fluid shunt systems
- Passage of peritoneal catheters between separated incisions
- Routing ventricular catheter extensions during hydrocephalus management
- Tunneling of drainage or infusion catheters across soft tissue
- Guiding flexible shunt tubing through fascia and subcutaneous planes
