Spurling kerrison rongeur working length 230mm, thin footplate angled up 40° 2.0mm bite 15.0mm opening, cherry handle

Controlled Access for Precise Rongeur Handling

The Spurling Kerrison rongeur is a surgical biting instrument used to remove small amounts of bone or other hard tissue during procedures requiring controlled access. Its 230mm working length supports reach into deeper operative fields, while the extra-thin footplate and 40° upward angle help position the bite at the intended site. A Spurling handle supports familiar instrument handling across General Surgery and Neurosurgery workflows, where access, visibility, and measured manipulation are important to efficient instrument use.

Use Cases

• Use in General Surgery workflows requiring controlled biting and removal of small amounts of hard tissue.
• Use in Neurosurgery procedures where the 230mm working length supports access to deeper operative fields.
• Position the 40° upward-angled footplate to approach the working site from above.
• Use the 2mm bite for measured, incremental tissue or bone removal within the instrument’s working profile.

Care & Handling

• Clean the rongeur promptly after use according to facility procedures and the applicable instrument-care instructions.
• Inspect the footplate, bite, hinge, and handle before and after use for visible damage, obstruction, or impaired movement.
• Handle the angled footplate carefully to protect its thin profile during cleaning, transport, and storage.
• Store the instrument so the working end is protected from contact with other instruments.
