Spurling Lami-Rong 45

Clinical Application

Designed for focused bone removal during posterior spinal procedures, the 45° angulation enables controlled nibbling of lamina, laminar gutters, facet osteophytes, and small cortical fragments during laminectomy and decompression. The angled beak provides improved access to the lateral recess and foraminal regions without requiring excessive soft-tissue retraction, making it useful in both open and limited-exposure spine cases.

Design & Configuration

The 45° tip angulation places the biting surface in line with common laminar and lateral bone planes, permitting a perpendicular bite on curved surfaces and undercuts. This geometry helps preserve visualization while allowing the surgeon to approach bone behind neural elements at a safer working angle. A narrow shaft profile and compact beak reduce the need for wide exposure and improve maneuverability in the posterior canal.
