Hip Instruments Set

We understand that ordering a new hip surgery instrument set can feel confusing and complex. Hospitals, surgical teams, and individual orthopaedic consultants often have very particular preferences when it comes to the mix of retractors, elevators, osteotomes, and levers. To simplify the decision‑making process, we’ve compiled a recommended hip set based on our experience, reflecting the instruments most commonly used in hip surgery.

This hip set is carefully structured to support the demands of major hip procedures, including joint exposure, dislocation, bone preparation, and reconstruction. Instruments include scalpel handles (No. 3 and No. 4) for incision, tissue‑handling forceps (like Lane dissecting forceps and Gillies forceps), and artery forceps for haemostasis. For deep exposure, the set offers Langenbeck retractors, and to manipulate bone, it includes tools such as osteotomes (e.g., Capener), a Hohmann-type bone elevator, and a Trethowan bone lever.

To support controlled bone work, the set features specialised instruments like the Liston bone-cutting forceps and a Heath mallet (38 oz) for delivering precise force. All instruments are supplied in a robust DIN mesh basket (480 × 250 × 50 mm), making sterilisation, handling, and organisation easier in the operating theatre.

Each instrument in this hip set is manufactured to high standards of durability and ergonomics, aligned with Surgical Holdings’ expertise in orthopaedic instrument production. By bringing together these essential and reliable tools, surgical teams gain a cohesive and efficient tray that supports safe, precise, and consistent hip surgery.
