Jost Stainless Steel Cartilage Crusher/Morselizer

The Jost Stainless Steel Cartilage Crusher/Morselizer is a specialized surgical instrument used in plastic and reconstructive surgery, particularly in rhinoplasty (nose surgery)

The main purpose of the instrument is to crush or morselize harvested cartilage grafts (such as septal or rib cartilage) to create a softer, more pliable material for transplantation. This manipulated cartilage is then used by surgeons for:

• Material: Crafted from surgical-grade German stainless steel, ensuring durability, corrosion resistance, and reusability.
• Design: Features strong, durable jaws and an ergonomic handle that allows surgeons to apply controlled pressure.
• Surfaces: The crushing area (typically 65x30mm) often features interchangeable surfaces to provide different results:
• Smooth
• Longitudinal serrated
• Cross-serrated
• Versatility: Some designs combine crushing with a holder function, allowing the surgeon to hold, crush, and even suture the graft without slippage.
• Sterilization: The instrument is fully reusable and autoclavable, designed to withstand frequent sterilization procedures.
