Clinical Application
Provides controlled cutting and removal of bone and tough osseous fragments in confined operative fields. The instrument is intended for use in orthopedic and trauma procedures, as well as maxillofacial, ENT and select neurosurgical cases where precise sectioning or trimming of cortical bone is required. The 18.5 cm length balances reach and tactile control for intraoperative osteotomy, bone fragment removal, and targeted bone edge reduction.
Design & Configuration
The straight orientation gives direct access along the instrument axis and facilitates a linear cutting approach in tight or shallow cavities. The Ruskin-Liston (Liston-style) jaw geometry is designed to generate a robust shearing bite against cortical bone while maintaining visual and tactile feedback for the surgeon. Moderate overall length provides leverage for effective cutting force without sacrificing maneuverability.
