Caspar Laminectomy Rongeur str 5mm, 15.5cm

Clinical Application

Designed for spinal decompression procedures, this rongeur is used to bite and remove small segments of lamina, bone spurs and soft tissue during laminectomy, microdiscectomy and other posterior spinal approaches. The 5 mm jaw provides a controlled, focused bite appropriate for working through narrow surgical corridors commonly encountered in cervical and lumbar procedures. Its length is selected to balance reach into the operative field with tactile control for precise bone removal.

Design & Configuration

The straight shaft geometry provides direct-line access to posterior elements of the spine and allows the blade to approach the lamina and facet margins without additional curvature, which is useful for midline or paramedian exposures. A 5 mm cutting jaw delivers a conservative working aperture that helps the surgeon remove discrete bone fragments while preserving surrounding neural elements. The overall 15.5 cm length offers sufficient reach for typical open and limited-exposure spinal cases while maintaining ergonomic control at the handles.
