Clinical Application
Designed to provide controlled manual bone division in open procedures, these forceps are used to grasp and shear small- to medium-sized bone segments during orthopedic, trauma, podiatric and general surgical cases. The straight bone-cutting jaws permit precise placement and perpendicular cuts for osteotomies, bone resections and amputations where a powered saw is impractical or when fine manual control is required.
Design & Configuration
The straight configuration positions the cutting jaws in line with the handles for direct axial force transmission and clear visualization of the operative field. Scissor-style handles with a robust hinge deliver mechanical leverage for controlled shear cutting, while the straight jaw geometry facilitates access in confined spaces and allows perpendicular bite on bone surfaces for predictable sectioning.
