MicroAire 81014 Carpal Tunnel Release System with SmartRelease Attachments
MicroAire 81014 SmartRelease® ECTR System | Complete 6-Piece Hand Instrument Set | Aesculap JF159R Case
The MicroAire 81014 is the central component of the SmartRelease® Endoscopic Soft Tissue Release System, the most widely used single-portal ECTR system worldwide. This premium pistol-grip handpiece is engineered for precision ligament transection, allowing surgeons to treat carpal tunnel syndrome through a single, small incision in the wrist crease.
By integrating a high-definition endoscope (not included) with the 81014 handpiece and its specialized attachments, the system provides a direct, magnified view of the underside of the transverse carpal ligament. This minimally invasive approach is clinically proven to reduce post-operative pain, minimize scarring, and allow patients to return to normal activities significantly faster than traditional open release procedures.
