Volkmann Bone Curette Size 1 x 275mm (Ref BS 14-397-02)

Volkmann Bone Curette Size 1 x 275mm (Ref BS 14-397-02), manufactured at the Fizza Surgical facility in Sialkot, Pakistan.

Richard von Volkmann was a German surgeon who, alongside developing antiseptic technique in Germany, lent his name to the rake retractor used today across general, orthopaedic, and plastic surgery. Volkmann retractors are characterized by sharp or blunt prongs (typically 1, 2, 3, 4, or 6 prongs) on a curved or straight handle. Sharp-prong variants engage and elevate skin or fascia; blunt-prong variants retract without piercing. The 2-prong sharp is standard for wound exposure during minor surgery; the 4- and 6-prong variants are used for larger incisions and orthopaedic work. Single-handed and ergonomic, letting an assistant maintain exposure for prolonged periods without fatigue.

Sialkot has been the world’s primary cluster for surgical-instrument manufacturing since the late nineteenth century, when local steel workshops began supplying instruments to British military and civilian hospitals. Fizza Surgical’s facility continues that tradition, combining workshop craftsmanship with the metallurgy and quality systems modern medical regulation requires. Fizza products are exhibited at international medical-device trade fairs in Europe, the Middle East, and North America.
