An adjustable surgical arm rest and instrument platform for supporting the arms and hands of a surgeon during a micro-surgical procedure, in which a supporting platform is provided with vertical and angular adjustment mechanisms which permit rapid adjustment of the platform before, during and after the operation. Two or more platforms may be used, and each platform can be adjusted independently of the other platforms. The angular adjustment of a platform can be performed independently of the vertical adjustment of the platform. Each mechanism is provided with a two part securing feature so that the platforms will not move accidentally. An oxygen/air tube may be attached during local procedures to supply oxygen.
