12 Ferris-Smith Pituitary Rongeur 3mm up

Extended Reach with Focused 3mm Bite Control

The 12" Ferris-Smith Pituitary Rongeur 3mm up is a 12-inch surgical rongeur intended for controlled biting and removal work where access and instrument reach matter. Its 3mm bite size supports focused engagement, while the extended length can help position the working end within a deeper operative field. In General Surgery and Neurosurgery workflows, it can support precise tissue or bone rongeur tasks where a narrow bite is appropriate. This combination provides a practical balance of reach and bite control for routine instrument handling, visualization, and stepwise work at the operative site.

Use Cases

• Support focused rongeur work in General Surgery when a 3mm bite is appropriate.
• Use in Neurosurgery workflows requiring an extended 12-inch instrument for access within a deeper operative field.
• Engage and remove small amounts of tissue or bone during tasks suited to the pituitary rongeur family.
• Use the narrow bite configuration to support controlled, stepwise work and maintain a clear view of the working area.
