[Pneumatically driven instruments for microsurgery (author's transl)].
In recent years motor driven hand instruments for especially difficult microsurgical manipulations have come in use. Under certain conditions the electric low volt systems presented difficulties with regard to power or reliability. Therefore trials were made with pneumatic systems which with same dimensions produce much more power. In this way also totally different functions can be remote-controlled in quite a new way.
