F.S.K (Cloward Harper) Punch up 5mm 18cm 40

Clinical Application

This precision punch is designed for controlled biting and removal of soft disc material and small osseous structures in anterior cervical spine procedures, including techniques based on the Cloward approach. The 5 mm cutting head provides a conservative bite profile that helps preserve adjacent anatomy while enabling effective debridement in the confined anterior cervical working space.

Design & Configuration

The "up" orientation indicates the cutting edge is configured to bite when the instrument is elevated toward the surgeon, facilitating removal of tissue from superior or anterior aspects of the disc or osteophyte. An 18 cm shaft length provides reach within the cervical exposure without excessive bulk, improving visualization and ergonomics during sequential bites. The slim profile of the punch head supports precise placement in tight spaces and controlled, incremental tissue removal.
