Ferris-Smith Lami-Rong. str 2x10mm, 18cm

Clinical Application

This straight rongeur is intended for controlled removal of lamina, small bone spurs, and bone fragments during laminectomy, laminotomy and other spinal or neurosurgical procedures. The relatively compact 2 × 10 mm bite provides a focused cutting surface for precise nibbling and shaping of cortical and cancellous bone in confined operative corridors, helping limit collateral soft-tissue manipulation near the dura and nerve roots.

Design & Configuration

The straight instrument profile delivers a direct, inline approach to posterior spinal elements and small bone fragments. A small, rectangular bite concentrates cutting force for predictable purchase and fragment removal in narrow exposures. The Ferris‑Smith pattern is known for robust jaw geometry that facilitates deliberate, controlled bone removal while preserving tactile feedback for the surgeon.
