Mini Step™ bladeless trocars are innovative products that incorporate Step™ Radial Dilation technology with a truly bladeless obturator. Step™ radially expanding technology allows the Mini Step™ bladeless trocars to yield a smaller wound for an equivalent cannula size compared to conventional bladed trocars. The low profile design makes this line of bladeless trocars ideal for small patients.
Mini Step™ bladeless trocars are available in short (90mm) and standard (120mm) working lengths in 2/3mm, 5mm, and 7/8mm diameters.
