NICO Corporation
NICO Corporation, formed in October 2007, is dedicated to developing technology for the field of corridor surgery, including Cranial, ENT, Spinal and Otolaryngology where access to the surgical site is limited. Our technology and products are designed to progress corridor surgery by creating instruments that allow for access through smaller openings and resection of soft tissue abnormalities.
Myriad® The NICO Myriad system consists of the console, handpieces and ancillary products. All NICO Myriad handpieces have a side mouth cutting and aspiration aperture located .6mm from the blunt end that allows for tissue removal without injury to adjacent critical structures.1 The NICO Myriad handpieces are available in 11, 13, 15, 17 and 19 gauges and a variety of lengths.

COAGULATION
Fixed V-shaped electrode design able to address a wide range of micro-vascular structures with precision and control Up-toe position for ideal visualization down narrow corridors ASPIRATION
Variable aspiration achieved via the slider Beveled tip on suction channel, along with the irrigation, helps prevent the opportunity for occlusion IRRIGATION
Two irrigation channels:
Controlled drip channel that continuously washes over electrodes during use, reducing the opportunity for carbonization and tissue adhesion Flush channel to deliver larger amount of fluid to clear the surgical field Tissue Preservation SystemTM Tissue that is removed is captured and uniquely preserved in a sterile, closed system and may enable the pursuit of regenerative medicine options.
The Tissue Preservation System is a unique and proprietary ancillary product to the NICO Myriad. It connects to the Myriad’s handpiece to capture resected tissue as a closed tissue capture system.

The NICO Fluid System provides controlled irrigation to the surgical site and refills automatically after each syringe compression. The extended tubing allows for fluid to be directly drawn from the warming bath to deliver fluid at a more consistent temperature.
