Hibbs Osteotome

straight, 6-1/4" (16.0 cm) US Army Pattern Gouge is a specialized instrument designed for removal of specific segments of bone. This gouge is designed similarly to a chisel but the blade portion features a curvature to it allowing it to be used to scoop up segments. The opposite end of this gouge has a rounded, flat end that can be used with a mallet to increase the driving force to effectively pierce through bone. This gouge is available in three sizes 6.0 mm, 12.0 mm and 18.0 mm making them well suited for larger bones in the spinal surgery and smaller ones for more delicate work on the skull.

8-1/2" (22.0 cm) McCulloch Hockey Stick Chisel is a specialized instrument made for use in orthopedic spinal procedures. It is specifically used in procedures of the spine such as vertebral osteotomy and is particularly well suited with its slim handle and elongated, flattened profile. The angle at the end prevents the tip of the chisel from pierces and causing injury to the spinal cord during surgery. This instrument is available in either a right or left curve making it a versatile tool that fits any patient scenario and satisfies any surgeon preference.

11" (28.0 cm)Cobb Osteotome is ideally suited for use in neurosurgical procedures such as craniotomies. This osteotome can be used to do things such as create a window in the skull to allow access inside or to scrape or carve away at bone to reshape it. Additionally this instrument features a large, cylindrical handle with micro-serrations for added griping as well as a neck piece from which the blade extends making it firmly built. This instrument is available in seven sizes ranging from 6.0 mm to 32.0 mm and in either a curved or straight profile making it well suited for a number of diverse patient needs and surgeon preferences.

8" (20.0 cm) Smith Peterson Gouge is crafted for use in surgical procedures that require manipulation of bone such as scooping or creating a hole. This instrument can be used to increase access to the central soft tissue portion of the bone or in prepping bones from grafting. Uniquely this gouge features a rounded handle that increases gripping and allowing for firm handling and maneuverability. Additionally this instrument is available in either a straight or curved pattern and in seven sizes ranging in width from 6.0 mm to 30.00.
