Clinical Application
Designed for precise manual bone removal, this gouge is used to scrape, pare, and shape cortical and cancellous bone. Typical applications include preparation of graft beds, contouring bone edges, small osteotomies, and removing thin bone segments in orthopedic, podiatric, hand, and reconstructive procedures where controlled shaving and shaping are required.
Design & Configuration
The chisel-style cutting blade provides a focused 5 mm working edge that enables targeted bone scoring and carving. A 13.5 cm overall length offers close hand control and tactile feedback in confined anatomical spaces, allowing the surgeon to perform delicate bone contouring without excessive leverage. The blade geometry permits efficient shaving motions while maintaining visibility of the cutting surface.
