Clinical Application
Designed for secure capture and temporary stabilization of bone during orthopedic and trauma procedures. Common uses include fracture reduction, plate and screw fixation, osteotomy control, and manipulation of bone fragments in open procedures where a firm, atraumatic purchase on cortical bone is required. Because of its strong grasp, it is intended for bone handling rather than routine soft-tissue work.
Design & Configuration
The Lane pattern features a short, toothed jaw geometry on relatively long shanks that provides strong bite with a compact contact area—helpful when working in confined operative fields. The box-lock pivot and ratchet handle allow the instrument to maintain clamping pressure hands-free, giving the surgeon positional control while preparing fixation (drilling, tapping, or screw placement). The 45 cm overall length provides reach for deeper exposures or when working around large constructs without crowding the field.
