Rongeur instrument
A Rongeur Instrument is a powerful, double-action surgical tool used across multiple specialties for cutting or biting away hard tissue, primarily bone. Its defining feature is strong, cup-shaped jaws that provide a levered, biting action to remove small fragments of bone in a controlled manner. Rongeurs are indispensable in neurosurgery (for craniotomy or laminectomy), orthopedics (for joint surgery or fracture cleanup), ENT (for sinus or mastoid surgery), and oral surgery. They come in various sizes and jaw configurations (straight, curved, angled) to suit different anatomical needs.
Key Features:
-
Strong, double-action mechanism provides leveraged cutting force with minimal hand pressure.
-
Cup-shaped jaws allow for the controlled, biting removal of bone fragments.
-
Used in neurosurgery, spinal surgery, orthopedics, ENT, and oral/maxillofacial surgery.
-
Enables precise bone work near delicate structures like nerves and blood vessels.
-
Available in multiple sizes and jaw angles (e.g., Kerrison, pituitary, Leksell styles).
-
A fundamental category of bone-cutting instruments in surgery.
