A nasal knife is a precision surgical tool used in ENT procedures to carefully cut and reshape internal nasal structures, such as the septum. These instruments are designed for delicate dissection, ensuring accuracy during surgeries like septoplasty or submucous resection.
Nasal knives are typically reusable, stainless-steel instruments with specialized blade designs for specific surgical tasks. Their regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified based on their surgical purpose and risk level, not as a single category.
