Ceramic Cut Bayonet Rotating Kerrison Rongeur

regular footplates, large handles, strong 70 degrees up-curved shaft, 40 degree up bite, 8" (20.0 cm), black ceramic coat Ceramic Cut Micro Kerrison Foraminotomy Rongeurs are specialized instruments designed for use in laminectomies. The 70 degree up-curved shaft is ideal for better visualization and access needed in foraminotomy procedures. This rongeur features thin footplates and large handles, making it ideal for use in the narrow space surrounding the vertebral column. It is available in 2.0 – 5.0 mm bite in 1.0 mm increments to accommodate any surgical scenario. 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.

40 degrees up, small handles, 9.0 mm opening, thin footplate Fully Detachable Rongeurs feature a fully-removable shaft to ensure no debris remain in the interior of the instrument after cleaning and sterilization. The instrument can be easily disassembled and reassembled in just a few seconds. By pushing the release button on the body, the front handle can be pulled down and the upper shaft can be pulled backwards and up to remove completely.

undefined Bi-Color Ceramic 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 black and gold titanium nitride surface treatment hardens and protects the instrument body and cutting surface for a durable, smooth gliding action. These coated rongeurs do not need sharpening as often as traditional rongeurs, thus reducing operating costs and enhancing service life.

undefined Ceramic Cut Rotating Kerrison Rongeurs feature a fully-rotatable instrument shaft, 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. These instruments feature a unique combination: the small handles typical of Micro Kerrison styles, with the larger bite opening typical of Spurling-Kerrison styles. This is a perfect compromise for surgeons who prefer the small handles but do not want to lose the advantages of a larger bite opening. A bayonet-shaft version of the rotating rongeur is also available. 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.
