regular footplates, large handles, strong 70 degrees up-curved shaft, 40 degree up bite, 8" (20.0 cm), black ceramic coat Ceramic Cut Micro Kerrison Foraminotomy Rongeurs are specialized instruments designed for use in laminectomies. The 70 degree up-curved shaft is ideal for better visualization and access needed in foraminotomy procedures. This rongeur features thin footplates and large handles, making it ideal for use in the narrow space surrounding the vertebral column. It is available in 2.0 – 5.0 mm bite in 1.0 mm increments to accommodate any surgical scenario. The ceramic cut style offers additional benefits in the form of a black ceramic surface treatment which provides unparalleled hardness and durability. The coating is designed to reduce the friction between metal surfaces, providing surgeons with a smooth, steady gliding action and a longer-lasting rongeur.

This prevents the risk of loss through separate parts. This model also features a black ceramic surface treatment which provides unparalleled hardness and durability. The black ceramic coating is designed to reduce the friction between metal surfaces, providing surgeons with a smooth, steady gliding action and a longer-lasting rongeur. The dark finish also reduces glare under operating room lights. The rongeur is a specialized instrument ideally suited for use in laminectomy procedures. It features small handles and thin 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.

undefined Bayonet Rotating Kerrison Rongeurs feature a fully-rotatable and bayoneted instrument shaft, removable with the click of a single thumb release lever. The rotating shaft allows for a range of cutting angles, and the removable shaft is ideal for thorough decontamination and sterilization of the instrument. The bayonet shape also allows for better visualization. These shafts feature the larger bite opening typical of Spurling-Kerrison styles. Please note this is for the shaft only. Handles are sold separately.
