suitable for dorsal access to the spinal column, interchangeable blades, curved blades allow larger operative area, reduced shadowing during x-ray, unilateral & bilateral access to lamina, lightweight, corrosion resistant titanium Casper Type Titanium Spinal Spreading System a set of instruments and components that is specifically designed for retraction and spreading in orthopedic neurosurgical procedures. This instrument is suitable for dorsal access to the spinal column. It features interchangeable blades which have a slight curvature that allows for a larger operative area and reduce shadowing during x-ray. It allows for unilateral and bilateral access to lamina and is formed from a lightweight, corrosion resistant titanium. It is available as the frame only, blade support with closure, blade supporting with adjustable screw or as a complete set.
Ceramic Cut Bayonet Micro Kerrison Rongeur
undefinedCeramic Cut Bayonet Micro Kerrison Rongeurs retain all the features of traditional Micro Kerrison models with the added benefit of a bayonet-style shaft which allows for better visualization and access by the surgeon. This style is offered both with and without an ejector pin, depending on surgical preference. The ceramic cut style offers additional benefits in the form of a black ceramic surface treatment which provides unparalleled hardness and durability. The coating is designed to reduce the friction between metal surfaces, providing surgeons with a smooth, steady gliding action and a longer-lasting rongeur.
Ceramic Cut Bayonet Rotating Kerrison Rongeur
undefined Ceramic Cut Bayonet Rotating Kerrison Rongeurs are one of our most featured-packed models. A fully-rotatable and bayoneted instrument shaft is removable with the click of a single thumb release lever. The rotating shaft allows for a range of cutting angles, and the removable shaft is ideal for thorough decontamination and sterilization of the instrument. The bayonet shape also allows for better visualization, whereas the ceramic cut black surface treatment adds durability. These shafts feature a larger bite opening typical of Spurling-Kerrison styles. Please note this is for the shaft only. Handles are sold separately.
Ceramic Cut Improved Rotating Kerrison Rongeur
undefinedCeramic Cut Improved Rotating Kerrison Rongeurs provide all the benefits of the standard rotating shaft models, but with an improved release mechanism and shaft as well as black ceramic coating. The special tubular shaft can be rotated in 45-degree steps in 8 different locking positions, for a range of cutting angles. The shaft may only be released in 1 of the 8 positions, preventing accidental release during surgery. The shaft comes apart in 4 different pieces for easy cleaning and sterilization. In addition, the tubular shape of the shaft makes disassembly faster and cleaning easier, unlike traditional rongeurs which have two sliding (upper and lower) shafts. Please note this is for the shaft only. Handles are ordered separately.
Ceramic Cut Medium Kerrison Rongeur
Ceramic Cut Medium Kerrison Rongeurs are an ideal choice for surgeons preferring to combine the benefits of the small handles on Micro Kerrison models with the larger bite opening of the Spurling-Kerrison models. This model also features a black ceramic surface treatment which provides unparalleled hardness and durability. The black ceramic coating is designed to reduce the friction between metal surfaces, providing surgeons with a smooth, steady gliding action and a longer-lasting rongeur. The dark finish also reduces glare under operating room lights.
Ceramic Cut Micro Kerrison Detachable Rongeur
undefined Ceramic Cut Micro Kerrison Detachable Rongeurs feature a swing style shaft which opens up to allow easy cleaning of the shaft interior. Once the thumb release lever above the handle is depressed, the top portion of the cutting shaft unlocks and is able to be swung open, though it remains hinged. This prevents the risk of loss through separate parts. This model also features a black ceramic surface treatment which provides unparalleled hardness and durability. The black ceramic coating is designed to reduce the friction between metal surfaces, providing surgeons with a smooth, steady gliding action and a longer-lasting rongeur. The dark finish also reduces glare under operating room lights. The rongeur is a specialized instrument ideally suited for use in laminectomy procedures. It features small handles and thin footplate and is 40 degrees up which allows it to comfortably maneuver in the narrow spaces in and around the vertebral column. Laminectomies are performed for a number of reasons.
