vanjska dvanaesterostrana matica
Explanation:
Ili - vanjska dvanaesterokutna matica. Na više mjesta se spominju različiti termini za matice vezano za broj stranica, tj. broj kuteva.

U literaturi se spominje uz četverostranu uglavnom šesterostrana matica kao najčešća. Dodekaedar ima 12 stranica pa bi vjerojatno trebalo biti - dvanaesterostrana matica.

Thanks to everyone for offering some great suggestions. Since this is an medical device, I selected the term that included the term "device" (wrench) in Croatian.

Explanation:

ako je riječ o popisu instrumenata, mislim da bi se moglo raditi o ključu, odvijaču ili kako se već naziva, za tu maticu
