Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: What is a Cottle Cartilage Crusher used for?
A: Cottle Cartilage Crusher is applied in facial reconstruction and rhinoplasty surgeries to reform and refine cartilage. It assists surgeons in making uniform pieces of cartilage to smooth or camouflage the nasal surface, and is used with a mallet to create controlled and precise tissue alterations.

Q: What is the length of Grey Medical’s Cottle Cartilage Crusher?
A: Grey Medical’s Cottle Cartilage Crusher comes in two types of surface-smooth and longitudinal serrations-both of which are 65 x 30 x 30mm. The flattening and refining of cartilage is achieved with the smooth surface and the serrated surface offers an extra grip to provide a more controlled crushing.

Q: How does a Cartilage Crusher differ from other retractors?
A: A morselizer such as the Rubin applies jaw-action in masticating cartilage between two opposing serrated surfaces. The Cottle Crusher, however, is a mallet-driven block instrument – the surgeon puts cartilage on its surface and applies controlled strikes to reform it. This suits it better to flatten grafts and cover irregularities as opposed to fragmenting septal cartilage on-site.

Q: What is the Cottle Cartilage Crusher made from?
A: The Cottle Cartilage Crusher is made from premium German stainless steel, to ensure that the instrument is resistant to corrosion, has a long lifetime, and can be sterilised in an autoclave using standard sterilisation cycles.

Q: Can the Cottle Cartilage Crusher be autoclaved?
A: Yes. The Grey Medical Cottle Cartilage Crusher is completely autoclavable and safe to use in steam sterilisation (134°C / 273°F) for multiple uses in a sterile environment.
