Giertz Stille Rib Shear
The Giertz Stille Rib Shear is a robust and powerful orthopedic instrument designed for the controlled cutting of ribs during thoracic and cardiothoracic surgical procedures, such as thoracotomy. Its heavy-duty, double-action scissor mechanism provides significant mechanical advantage, allowing surgeons to cleanly cut through rib bone with minimal effort and reduced splintering. This precision is crucial for creating a clean osteotomy, which facilitates better healing and reduces post-operative pain and complications associated with rib fractures.
Key Features:
