Ferris-Smith-Kerrison Rongeur

Micro Kerrison Detachable Rongeur is a specialized instrument ideally suited for use in laminectomy procedures. It features small handles and regular 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. Some include increased access to a particular region of the spinal cord by removing the vertebral arch of a series of vertebrae or to reduce pressure on a particular portion of the vertebral column. This instrument is available in 7", 8" or 9" as well as in a variety of bite widths and with or without an ejector making it highly versatile and well suited for a number of surgical scenarios.

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.

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.
