Clinical Application
Provides controlled, sustained grip on cortical bone during open orthopedic and trauma procedures. Commonly used to reduce and hold bone fragments during plating, to maintain alignment while drilling or inserting fixation devices, and to stabilize small bone segments in hand, wrist, forearm and long-bone procedures where a precise, positive purchase is required.
Design & Configuration
The Lambotte pattern features slender, pointed jaws that deliver focused bite and penetration for reliable purchase on cortical surfaces without excessive bulk. The ratcheted locking handles allow the surgeon to set and maintain compression or alignment hands-free while working. At 19 cm length the instrument balances reach and tactile control—long enough to work in deeper exposures but compact enough for fine manipulation in confined fields.
