摘要

Introduction

Plated bayonet forceps (PBF) are bayonet forceps with plated tips. PBF have the advantage for longitudinal dissection and tissue spreading with reduced local pressure. The use of PBF has rarely been described.

Methods

We describe the use of PBF in neurosurgical procedures, including representative surgical video clips showing their use.

Results

Overall, the main indications we have used PBF include spinal cord splitting during intramedullary tumor resection or syrinx drainage, and intraparenchymal brainstem tumors. PBF may also be applied for any small field tissue spreading, especially for longitudinal structures, and when the spreading forces are on opposing structures such as an interforniceal approach, or spreading or a sulcus.

Conclusion

PBF are a unique and underused tool. They may be applied to locally spread and retract tissues during microneurosurgical procedures in the brain and spinal cord.
