Clinical Application
Designed for spinal procedures, this Caspar laminectomy rongeur provides a narrow, controlled bite for removal and contouring of lamina, small bone spicules and osteophytes during decompression procedures such as laminectomy and limited facetectomy. The 3 mm tip is optimized for precision work in confined posterior spinal corridors, where preservation of adjacent soft tissues and controlled bone removal are critical.
Design & Configuration
The straight configuration offers a direct line of access from the posterior approach, allowing the surgeon to align the instrument with the working corridor for predictable bites. A 15.5 cm overall length balances reach and tactile feedback, while the 3 mm narrow tip enables selective removal of cortical and cancellous fragments without excessive disruption to nearby structures. The geometry is suitable for both open and limited-access posterior spinal procedures where precision and visibility are required.
