Description

The Capener Lamina Gouge is designed for controlled bone removal and shaping during spinal procedures. It is particularly useful when working around the vertebral lamina, where bone needs to be removed carefully while keeping the surrounding structures protected.

The instrument has a cranked shaft that gives the working end a useful angle for reaching deeper or more restricted areas. The curved cutting profile also helps with positioning the gouge around the lamina and other bony structures, making it easier to remove and shape bone while keeping good control.

There are 6 mm, 8 mm, 11 mm, 13 mm, and 16 mm width options. The smaller sizes can be used for more focused bone removal, while the wider options provide more coverage when a larger area needs to be prepared. This range gives surgical teams several choices depending on the procedure and the amount of bone being removed.

The Tufnol handle provides a secure grip during mallet-assisted use. Its balanced design makes the instrument comfortable to hold while the cutting end is positioned, and the 23 cm (9″) overall length provides useful reach without making the gouge difficult to maneuver.

It is made from surgical-grade stainless steel and goes through quality control inspection before it is supplied. The instrument is checked for its overall finish and condition, while the cutting profile and Tufnol handle are inspected to make sure they are properly finished and secure. These checks help ensure that the instrument is in good working condition before use. The stainless-steel construction also makes it suitable for regular cleaning and maintenance as a reusable surgical instrument.

With its cranked shaft, curved cutting profile, five width options, Tufnol handle, and 23 cm length, the Capener Lamina Gouge provides surgical teams with several options for controlled bone removal around the lamina. Its design makes it suitable for spinal decompression, reconstruction, and other procedures where accurate bone preparation is required.
