Dingmann Bone Holding Fcps modified 19cm

Clinical Application

Designed to provide secure temporary fixation of bone fragments during reduction and fixation, this Dingmann-style bone-holding forceps is used in orthopedic, trauma, hand/foot, and maxillofacial procedures. It facilitates controlled manipulation of bone segments during plate and screw fixation, intramedullary work, osteotomy alignment, and reduction of small or irregular fragments where precise purchase and sustained holding force are required.

Design & Configuration

The instrument features a Dingmann-style jaw geometry that concentrates grip on bone while minimizing soft-tissue entrapment. A ratchet locking mechanism allows the surgeon or assistant to maintain consistent compressive force without continuous manual pressure, freeing hands for instrumentation or fixation steps. At 19 cm overall length the modified configuration balances reach into deeper operative fields with tactile control for fine adjustments, making it suitable for both small-bone work and many standard orthopedic approaches.
