Bone Tissue Forceps Curved 14.0 cm (5.5)

Precision Alignment and Stabilization for Complex Reductions

Achieving accurate anatomical alignment during fracture repair requires instruments that combine familiar grip with guided precision. These 5 1/2-inch bone reduction forceps feature curved jaws designed to navigate around soft tissue and contour to specific bone structures, facilitating clear visualization of the reduction site. The integrated handle includes a 0.047-inch (1.2mm) K-wire guide ring, allowing surgeons to maintain fragment position while simultaneously directing wire placement for temporary fixation. A reliable ratchet mechanism supports consistent holding pressure without continuous manual effort, reducing hand fatigue during prolonged procedures. This dual-function design streamlines the workflow in both general surgery and orthopedic settings by merging reduction and guidance into a single, efficient instrument.

Use Cases

• Maintaining reduction of bone fragments while inserting 1.2mm K-wires for temporary stabilization
• Navigating curved jaws around soft tissue structures to improve visibility during open reduction
• Securing fracture alignment in orthopedic trauma procedures requiring precise wire guidance
• Assisting in complex reconstructive tasks where simultaneous holding and drilling access is critical

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Inspect jaws and ratchet mechanism for wear or damage before each use to supports proper function
• Clean thoroughly according to facility protocols, paying attention to the guide ring and hinge areas
• Store in a protected environment to prevent deformation of the curved jaws or guide ring
