Abstract
This article discusses the universal liposuction cannula handle modifier. The position of the traditional liposuction cannula is oriented parallel to the shaft. However, this position may fatigue the operating physician's forearm and hand muscles. One company has apparently attempted to address this issue by preparing a traditional liposuction cannula with a permanently fixed, Perpendicular extension. Unfortunately, the perpendicular orientation, although closer to the optimal "holding" angle, may also be fatiguing to the operator.
