Partsch Bone Gouge 5mm 17cm

Clinical Application

This gouge is intended for controlled removal and contouring of bone during a range of procedures where precise cortical bone shaping is required. Typical applications include orthopedic and trauma procedures, hand and foot surgery, bone graft preparation, and reconstructive cases that require sculpting or trimming of small to medium-sized cortical surfaces. The 5 mm blade width enables accurate, incremental bone removal in confined operative fields.

Design & Configuration

The instrument features a gouge-style cutting blade that scoops and pares bone rather than chopping, which aids in controlled material removal and tactile feedback. A 5 mm blade width offers a balance between precision and efficient cutting for localized work, while the 17 cm overall length provides reach and ergonomic control for deep or narrow surgical sites. The single-blade, hand-held configuration allows the surgeon to modulate force and angle for delicate contouring and finishing maneuvers.
