Spurling kerrison rongeur working length 180mm, thin footplate angled down 90° 2.0mm bite 15.0mm opening large handle

Controlled Access and Precise Bone Removal

The Spurling Kerrison rongeur is a surgical instrument used to remove small portions of bone and other hard tissue during controlled decompression and access procedures. Its 180mm working length provides extended reach, while the extra-thin footplate and 90° downward angle support access through constrained operative fields. A large Spurling handle supports secure, deliberate manipulation during procedures in General Surgery and Neurosurgery, helping teams select an instrument suited to precise work where reach, approach angle, and footplate profile are important.

Use Cases

• Remove small sections of bone during General Surgery procedures requiring a controlled rongeur bite.
• Support Neurosurgery workflows involving access through confined operative fields.
• Use the 90° downward angle to approach the operative site from a directed orientation.
• Apply the extra-thin footplate where a reduced-profile instrument approach is required.
• Use the 180mm working length when extended instrument reach is appropriate for the operative field.

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the rongeur according to the facility's validated protocols and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the footplate, bite, hinge, and handle before and after use for visible damage, deformation, or restricted movement.
• Handle the extra-thin footplate carefully during transport, cleaning, and storage to help prevent unintended damage.
• Store the instrument in a manner that protects the angled working end and prevents contact damage from other instruments.
