Clinical Application
Designed for orthopedic and trauma procedures, this Lambotte-style bone holding forceps provides secure capture and temporary fixation of cortical fragments during reduction, plate positioning, screw insertion, and intramedullary work. It is useful in extremity, pelvic and small bone procedures where controlled axial and rotational purchase of bone is required while definitive fixation is applied.
Design & Configuration
The ratcheted locking handle and robust box-lock shank deliver sustained clamping force without continuous manual effort, freeing the assistant or surgeon to perform fixation. At 23 cm length the instrument offers a balance of reach and control for both superficial and moderately deep exposures. The Lambotte pattern emphasizes durable, direct bite geometry that resists slipping on cortical surfaces, aiding precise reduction and alignment prior to definitive fixation.
