Urschel-Leksell rongeur 11 1/2" double-action curved jaws 8.0mm x 15.0mm bite, spring handle

Controlled Access and Efficient Bone Removal

The Urschel-Leksell rongeur is a surgical bone-cutting instrument designed to remove small portions of bone and support controlled shaping during operative work. Its 11 1/2-inch length provides useful reach, while the double-action mechanism and spring handle support repeatable opening and closing during handling. Curved jaws help approach the working area from a practical angle, and the 8.0 mm x 15.0 mm bite defines the intended cutting profile. This configuration can support instrument selection across cardiovascular, general surgery, and orthopedic workflows where access, jaw orientation, and deliberate tissue-area management are important.

Use Cases

• Use for controlled bone removal and shaping in orthopedic procedures.
• Support general surgery workflows requiring a long-handled rongeur with curved jaws.
• Use in cardiovascular surgical settings when a rongeur is selected for localized bone work or access-related shaping.
• Apply the double-action mechanism for repeated cutting motions during tasks suited to a rongeur.
• Use the curved jaw profile to approach working areas where a straight jaw orientation is less practical.

Specifications

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the rongeur according to facility protocols and the applicable manufacturer instructions for use.
• Inspect the curved jaws, bite surfaces, double-action mechanism, and spring handle before and after use for visible damage, residue, or impaired movement.
• Handle the jaws carefully during transport, cleaning, and storage to help protect the cutting surfaces and curved profile.
• Store the instrument in a manner that prevents impact, jaw distortion, or unintended loading of the spring handle.

General use; follow facility protocols.
