ACsizer System

Sterile Single-Use Sizers for KURZ® Tympanoplasty Prostheses

The unique ACsizer System significantly simplifies the all-important intra-operative determination of the length of a KURZ® Tympanoplasty prosthesis. The sizers, which are attached to the perimeter of a central disk, are used to quickly, exactly and reliably determine the required prosthesis length.

The selected sizer is simply cut off using micro scissors, transported into the middle ear and positioned between the tympanic membrane and the head of the stapes (Partial) or the stapes footplate (Total). The lightweight plastic and the delicate design of the sizer offers easy, evenly balanced handling and ideal visibility in the middle ear. The corresponding prosthesis length is shown on the head of the sizer.

Individually packaged sizers are available for total prostheses (8 sizers in 0.5 mm increments) and partial prostheses (6 sizers in 0.5 mm increments) and are supplied in a practical dispenser box.
