Caspar Lami. Rongeur up 3x12mm, 14cm

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled removal of small bone fragments and fibrous soft tissues during spinal decompression procedures, the up-biting jaw facilitates access to superior and undersurface margins encountered in laminectomy, foraminotomy, and microdiscectomy. The 3 x 12 mm bite size delivers predictable, incremental bites for precise sculpting of bone near the thecal sac and nerve roots where tactile feedback and limited bite depth are critical.

Design & Configuration

The upward-oriented biting tip provides improved visualization and approach when working on cranial or superior aspects of a bony margin from a posterior approach. A 14 cm overall length balances reach into deeper operative corridors with surgeon control in constrained exposures. The relatively small, well-defined 3 x 12 mm jaw allows fine, repeatable bites for staged bone removal while minimizing the risk of taking excessive material in a single pass.
