The Rowe Zygoma Elevator offers a wide range of surgical advantages. Its principal use is to reduce zygomatic arch fractures from the Gillies temporal approach.
For this purpose, the instrument features a spatula-shaped jaw that traverses the temporalis fascia incision. Once placed under the fascia, the fenestrated jaw helps in positioning the device at the right angle. Also, the fenestrated jaw works as a secondary handle for lifting the spatula against the bone and reduce the fracture.
Moreover, the Rowe Zygoma Elevator features a bottom ring handle that helps to position the device. The riveted joint ensures smooth jaw movements that permit atraumatic manipulation of the zygomatic arch.
