Caspar Lami. Rongeur down 3x12mm, 14cm

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled biting and removal of small bone fragments and cortical bone in confined surgical fields. Commonly used during spinal and neurosurgical procedures, as well as in orthopedic and ENT cases where precise, incremental bone nibbling is required to expose neural elements, shape bone edges, or remove lamina and osteophytes.

Design & Configuration

The down-curved jaw geometry permits improved access beneath overhangs and into narrow or angled anatomy, allowing the tip to engage bone surfaces with a clear line of sight from above. The 3 x 12 mm bite dimension supports deliberate, tissue-sparing cuts for fine sculpting rather than large-volume bone removal. A 14 cm overall length balances reach and hand control for work in deeper operative sites while maintaining tactile feedback for the surgeon.
