Bayonet Rotating Kerrison Rongeur

undefinedCeramic Cut Improved Rotating Kerrison Rongeurs provide all the benefits of the standard rotating shaft models, but with an improved release mechanism and shaft as well as black ceramic coating. The special tubular shaft can be rotated in 45-degree steps in 8 different locking positions, for a range of cutting angles. The shaft may only be released in 1 of the 8 positions, preventing accidental release during surgery. The shaft comes apart in 4 different pieces for easy cleaning and sterilization. In addition, the tubular shape of the shaft makes disassembly faster and cleaning easier, unlike traditional rongeurs which have two sliding (upper and lower) shafts. Please note this is for the shaft only. Handles are ordered separately.

undefined Bi-Color Ceramic Cut Medium Kerrison Rongeurs feature a combination black and gold titanium nitride surface treatment, which hardens and protects the instrument body and cutting surface for a durable, smooth gliding action. These coated rongeurs do not need sharpening as often as traditional rongeurs, thus reducing operating costs and enhancing service life. Medium Kerrison Rongeurs are an ideal choice for surgeons preferring to combine the benefits of the small handles on Micro Kerrison models with the larger bite opening of the Spurling-Kerrison models.

Micro Kerrison Detachable Rongeur is a specialized instrument ideally suited for use in laminectomy procedures. It features small handles and regular footplate and is 40 degrees up which allows it to comfortably maneuver in the narrow spaces in and around the vertebral column. Laminectomies are performed for a number of reasons. Some include increased access to a particular region of the spinal cord by removing the vertebral arch of a series of vertebrae or to reduce pressure on a particular portion of the vertebral column. This instrument is available in 7", 8" or 9" as well as in a variety of bite widths and with or without an ejector making it highly versatile and well suited for a number of surgical scenarios.

thin footplates, small handles, black ceramic coat Ceramic Cut Micro Kerrison Ejector Rongeur is ideally suited for use in neurosurgical orthopedic procedures. It is specifically designed for use in laminectomies in which a portion of the vertebral arch is removed posteriorly. This allows for increased access to the spinal cord and allow for increased visualization of surgical field. This rongeur is available in two lengths 7" and 8" and a variety of angles and bite widths making it suitable for almost any patient need or surgeon preference.
