Smith-Peterson laminectomy rongeur 9 double-action straight jaws 3.0mm bite, spring handle

Controlled Access for Bone-Removal Workflows

The Smith-Peterson laminectomy rongeur is a surgical bone-cutting instrument designed for controlled removal of bone during laminectomy and related procedures. Its 9-inch length supports access within the operative field, while the straight jaws provide a direct working orientation for targeted bites. The 3.0 mm bite size is suited to measured, task-focused bone removal, and the double-action mechanism with spring handle supports repeatable opening and closing during instrument handling. Its application may support General Surgery, Neurosurgery, and Orthopedic workflows where a rongeur is selected for controlled access and tissue-conscious instrument use.

Use Cases

• Use for controlled bone removal during laminectomy procedures.
• Apply the straight jaws when a direct approach to the working area is preferred.
• Use the 3.0 mm bite for measured, localized rongeur action.
• Support General Surgery, Neurosurgery, and Orthopedic workflows involving laminectomy or related bone-removal tasks.
• Use the 9-inch length where added instrument reach is useful within the operative field.
