What is a Ballenger swivel knife used for?

The Ballenger swivel knife is used for septal cartilage resection in rhinoplasty, septoplasty, and submucous resection of the nasal septum.

What is the difference between the bayonet and straight shaft Ballenger knife?

The bayonet shaft offsets the blade from the handle for direct visualisation of the working end during nasal surgery; the straight shaft is used where a standard inline approach is preferred.

Description

Ballenger Swivel Knife: Precision Septal Cartilage Instrument for Rhinoplasty and Septoplasty

Submucous resection of the nasal septum requires the blade to sweep along the cartilage base, rotate upward through the posterior quadrant, and return to the incision point without repositioning the handle. The swivel mechanism of the Ballenger knife fulfills this procedural demand by allowing a single continuous cartilage cut across four planes, consistent with standard septoplasty technique for quadrilateral resection.

Instrument	Primary Use and Procedure	Design
Ballenger Swivel Knife, 3mm Blade	Submucous resection of the nasal septum; cartilage trimming at the septal base and posterior quadrant	Straight or bayonet shaft, swivel rotating blade, hollow ergonomic handle
Ballenger Swivel Knife, 4mm Blade	Septal cartilage resection in rhinoplasty and septoplasty; wider blade for increased cartilage contact per pass	Straight or bayonet shaft, swivel rotating blade, hollow ergonomic handle
