Ferris-Smith kerrison rongeur working length 200mm angled up 40° 3.0mm bite, ergonomic ring handle

Controlled Access and Confident Handling for General and Neurosurgical Workflows

The Ferris-Smith Kerrison rongeur is a surgical biting instrument designed for controlled removal of small amounts of bone or other hard tissue during appropriate operative tasks. Its 200mm working length and 40° upward angle support access in deeper or constrained fields, while the micro weight class and ergonomic ring handle promote deliberate instrument positioning during repeated use. A 3mm bite provides a defined working profile for task-focused tissue and bone removal. Suitable for general surgery and neurosurgery workflows, this rongeur combines extended reach, directional control, and familiar ring-handle handling in a compact instrument format.

Use Cases

• Use for controlled biting and removal of bone or hard tissue where a Kerrison rongeur is appropriate.
• Support general surgery tasks requiring an upward-angled instrument for access within a constrained operative field.
• Assist neurosurgical workflows that call for extended reach and a defined 3mm bite profile.
• Use the 200mm working length to help position the biting end while maintaining the handle outside the immediate working area.
• Apply the ergonomic ring handle for deliberate opening, closing, and repositioning during instrument handling.

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the instrument in accordance with facility protocols and the applicable manufacturer instructions.
• Inspect the bite, angled shaft, joints, and ergonomic ring handle before and after use for visible damage, deformation, or impaired movement.
• Handle the biting end carefully during cleaning, transport, and storage to help protect the working edges.
• Store the rongeur in a manner that prevents contact damage to the bite and maintains safe access for inspection.
