Clinical Application
This straight Hibbs bone osteotome is intended for controlled cortical bone cutting, bone reshaping and formation of osteotomy surfaces. The 25 mm cutting blade width is suitable for larger cortical work such as femoral, tibial, pelvic and selected foot/hand procedures where a wide, chisel-style blade is required. It is used to remove cortical bone, create bone windows, or perform transverse or longitudinal osteotomies in open orthopedic and podiatric cases, typically used with hand-applied force or light mallet strikes for precise bone separation.
Design & Configuration
The straight geometry provides direct axial force transmission from the handle to the cutting edge, allowing accurate, controlled chiseling along a predictable trajectory. The 24 cm overall length offers extended reach into deeper surgical fields while maintaining tactile feedback. The flat, chisel-style 25 mm blade presents a broad cutting surface for even distribution of impact and efficient cortical bone removal, making it practical for shaping bone or creating uniform osteotomy planes.
