ENTACT◊ Septal Stapler
Making septal flap closure faster and more efficient*
Innovations in septo-turb procedures
Current techniques in septoplasty involve suturing in the narrows of nasal passages and placing splints that can be painful for patients upon removal.
The ENTACT Septal Stapler delivers resorbable implants via an ergonomic,1,2 single-use stapler system that replaces the need to suture. Surgeons can typically achieve approximation in less than a minute.3,4 Use of the ENTACT Septal Stapler has been shown to help minimize damage to surrounding tissues,3-6 and was shown in a study to reduce OR time**3 and help surgeons achieve more consistent results.**3
