Caspar Laminectomy Rongeur str 5x14mm, 16cm

Clinical Application

Designed for spine procedures, this rongeur is used to obtain controlled bites of cortical and cancellous bone and to remove small fragments of bone and ligament during laminectomy and posterior decompression. The narrow 5x14 mm bite enables precise bone removal in confined operative corridors, aiding in lamina windowing, medial facetectomy, and decompression of neural elements.

Design & Configuration

The straight shaft geometry provides a direct approach to laminar and posterior elements, allowing the surgeon to work along the midline without angulation introduced by the instrument. A relatively compact 5x14 mm jaw limits the bite volume for incremental bone removal and fine contouring, improving tactile feedback and minimizing collateral tissue disturbance. A 16 cm overall length balances reach into the surgical field with manual control for one-handed manipulation.
