Clinical Application
Designed for controlled removal of small bone and soft tissue during spinal and neurosurgical procedures, particularly laminotomy, laminectomy and foraminotomy. The instrument's 2 x 12 mm bite provides a measured, repeatable cutting volume for precise trimming of lamina, facet edges and osteophytes in confined operative corridors.
Design & Configuration
The straight shaft geometry facilitates direct midline approach and alignment with the surgical field, offering tactile feedback and predictable tip orientation. A 14 cm overall length balances reach into the posterior spinal canal with ergonomic control at the handles, enabling incremental bone bites in deep but narrow exposures. The compact 2 x 12 mm jaw reduces risk of excessive bone removal and improves visibility at the tip during delicate decompression work.
