Warsaw, Ind.-based Symmetry Medical is expanding its micro instrument portfolio with the addition of new neurosurgical line extensions. Symmetry’s micro instruments are produced by the company’s subsidiary Symmetry Surgical, formerly Codman Instruments and SSi. Symmetry Medical acquired Codman and Shurtleff along with its instruments division in January. The micro instruments produced by Symmetry Surgical are single-shafted mechanical micro instruments specifically designed for neurosurgical procedures. The new products include the release of a specially designed instrument tray that holds the comprehensive set of 33 micro instruments.

The tray provides tailored protection to the micro instruments’ 2 mm bayonetted shafts. It includes a removable lid and an independent shelf and base that can be placed directly on the back table in an operating room to keep the tools organized.

"The new micro instruments and custom tray create a great deal of value and efficiency for Neurosurgeons,” said Chris Huntington, chief operating officer of Symmetry Surgical. “Their innovative designs are synergistic to other innovations in the neurosurgical space and are in-line with our goal to help facilitate excellent clinical outcomes and operating room efficiency for our customers."

Headquartered in Nashville, Tenn., some of the brands produced by Symmetry Surgical are Bookwalter, Greenberg, Riley, Olsen, and Ultra, among others.
