Description

The Intervertebral Disc Rongeur is used for removing disc material during discectomy, decompression, and other spinal procedures. This model has a 40° downward jaw, giving the working end a different angle for reaching the disc space. The downward position can be useful when the area being worked on is easier to approach from above.

The angled jaw also gives the user more room to position the handle without having to keep the whole instrument in a straight line. This can make a difference when working in a smaller or deeper area, especially when the available space around the working site is limited.

The rongeur comes in bite sizes from 1 mm to 7 mm. The smaller sizes are suitable for taking out smaller amounts of disc material, while the larger bites can be used when more material needs to be removed at once. With several sizes available, the instrument can be selected according to the procedure and the amount of material being removed.

There are three shaft lengths to choose from: 15 cm (6″), 18 cm (7″), and 20 cm (8″). The 15 cm shaft provides a shorter option for closer working areas, while the 18 cm and 20 cm versions offer additional reach when needed. The ring handle gives the fingers a secure place to hold the instrument and makes opening and closing the jaws straightforward.

Made from surgical-grade material, the instrument is intended for repeated use. Each instrument is checked during production for the finish, jaw movement, and overall condition before it is supplied. It can then be cleaned and maintained with other reusable surgical instruments.

The Intervertebral Disc Rongeur is available in different bite sizes and shaft lengths, giving users several options when working with disc material during spinal procedures. The 40° downward jaw provides another useful configuration for reaching the working area.
