Clinical Application
Designed for orthopedic procedures that require controlled elevation or retraction of bone and periosteum. This Hohmann-style bone lever provides a stable contact surface for levering bone, exposing joint surfaces, or maintaining reduction during internal fixation in hip, knee and other extremity procedures. Its form is useful for creating working space around bony prominences while minimizing soft-tissue obstruction.
Design & Configuration
The single-blade Hohmann configuration concentrates force at a broad, flat contact surface to distribute pressure on bone while the length of the shaft provides reach and leverage for controlled manipulation. The 43 mm blade width offers a balance between surface area for stable purchase and a slim profile to reduce soft-tissue interference. The 240 mm overall length enhances access in deeper exposures and allows the surgeon to incrementally apply lifting force without excessive hand crowding.
