The Seachris Right Angle Rongeur with Curved Bite is designed for controlled grasping and removal of bone during orthopedic surgical procedures. Its right-angle working configuration positions the curved bite at an offset from the instrument shaft, providing an alternative approach to structures that may be difficult to access with a conventional straight rongeur.
The curved working end measures 15 × 5–6 mm, while the instrument has an overall length of 7.75" (19.7 cm). The combination of the right-angle configuration and curved bite provides a specialized working geometry for controlled bone manipulation.
Key Features
- Right-angle rongeur configuration
- Curved working bite
- 15 × 5–6 mm jaw bite
- 7.75" (19.7 cm) overall length
- Designed for controlled bone removal and manipulation
- Angled working geometry for alternative access
- Curved bite for engagement with the intended working area
- Suitable for orthopedic surgical applications
Right-Angle Design
The right-angle configuration changes the orientation of the working end relative to the instrument shaft. This can provide a useful approach when the surgical site requires access from an angled direction.
The configuration allows the user to position the curved bite at the operative site while maintaining the instrument shaft at a different angle.
Curved Bite
The working end features a curved bite measuring 15 × 5–6 mm. The curved geometry provides a defined contact area for grasping and removing bone.
The specified bite dimensions should be considered when selecting the instrument for a particular surgical application.
Working-End Characteristics
The working end combines two important design features:
- Right-angle orientation
- Curved bite
The jaw bite is specified as 15 × 5–6 mm, providing the dimensions of the working area. The curved profile is designed to assist with controlled engagement during bone manipulation and removal.
Surgical Applications
The Seachris Right Angle Rongeur with Curved Bite is intended to assist with:
- Controlled bone removal
- Bone fragment removal
- Bone trimming and preparation
- Orthopedic surgical procedures
- Manipulation of bone in areas requiring an angled approach
- Procedures where a curved working bite is advantageous
The instrument should be selected and used according to the specific surgical technique and access requirements.
Access and Positioning
The right-angle design can be useful when the working area is positioned such that a straight rongeur does not provide the desired approach. The offset working end allows the user to approach the target from a different orientation while maintaining control of the instrument.
The 7.75" (19.7 cm) overall length provides a practical working reach while retaining the specialized right-angle configuration.
Jaw Dimensions
The working bite is specified as:
15 × 5–6 mm
This provides a 15 mm bite length with a width ranging from approximately 5 to 6 mm.
