Overview: Farabeuf Periosteal Elevator / Raspatory

The Farabeuf Periosteal Elevator (Raspatory) is an essential surgical tool in orthopedic traumatology, spine decompression, and maxillofacial surgery. Designed for meticulous periosteal stripping, it cleanly elevates the fibro-collagenous membrane and soft tissue off cortical bone structures, ensuring a pristine bone bed for plating and screw fixation while minimizing periosteal devascularization and trauma.

The Farabeuf periosteal elevator is a surgical instrument used in orthopedic procedures to access and elevate tissue and periosteum, facilitating the surgeon’s work during the preparation of the surgical site. Selecting the appropriate instrument depends on the nature of the procedure, the shape of the working tip, and the handling and control required during use.

This type of instrument features a practical design that enhances control during surgical procedures, while requiring proper maintenance of cleanliness and surface integrity after each use. Cleaning, reprocessing, and sterilization must be carried out in accordance with the healthcare facility’s approved procedures, manufacturer instructions, and established protocols.

When selecting a Farabeuf periosteal elevator for hospital or operating room use, key considerations include manufacturing quality, design suitability for the intended procedure, and ease of handling during surgery. The instrument may also be compared with other periosteal elevators based on the specific type of surgery and the requirements of the surgical team.
