Clinical Application
Designed for controlled biting and removal of small bone segments and spicules in confined operative fields. Commonly used in otolaryngology (rhinoplasty, septoplasty), facial plastic surgery, and maxillofacial procedures where precise, atraumatic bone removal or segmenting is required. The instrument is intended to provide the surgeon with a reliable tool for trimming, shaping, and extracting bone fragments during osteotomies, fracture reduction, and contouring.
Design & Configuration
The straight geometry transmits axial force directly from the handles to the cutting jaws, facilitating predictable bites and fine tactile feedback. The Cottle Kazanjian pattern features robust bone-cutting jaws sized for small-to-medium facial bones; this configuration helps minimize splintering while allowing controlled removal in narrow surgical corridors. The 19 cm length provides extended reach into deeper nasal and facial sites without sacrificing maneuverability at the tip.
