double-action, lightly curved, 9″ (23.0 cm) Lempert Rongeur is crafted ideally for use in procedures that require manipulation and handling of bone. The jaws of this instrument are at a width of 3.0 mm that allows it to be used in cutting or gnawing away at bony segments. This can be useful in procedures such as craniotomies in remodeling of some skull bone or in orthopedic surgeries that require handling or cutting of bone such as in the orbit of the eye. This instrument is of a heavy pattern and is available in either a curved or straight design.
