Miller-Colburn File

Polokoff Bone File is a widely used instrument in surgery to aid in mild bone reshaping. Orthopedic neurosurgical procedures such as craniotomies or spinal surgeries such as discectomies require manipulation and handling of very delicate tissue such as nerves or brain tissue itself as well as a vast amount of vasculature. This file can be used to reshape or whittle down bone fragments that are sharp or jagged and could cause injury to any of the above tissue. Additionally this file is available with a short head and fine serrations or a long head with medium serrations.

double ended, backwards cutting, 6-3/4" (17.1 cm) Nail and Bone Rasp is ideal for a number of different neurosurgical orthopedic type surgeries. This rasp is double ended making it a two in one and can quickly switch between thw two heads. It has the ability to be backwards cutting. This instrument features serrations that allow either end to be used to whittle down or smooth roughened surfaces. In craniotomies or spinal surgeries such jagged edges can cause tearing on delicate tissue such as brain tissue or individual nerves and vasculature.

5-1/8" (13.0 cm) Bone and Skin Rasp is a unique instrument ideal for use in surgical procedures that require manipulation of bone and other hard tissue surfaces. This rasp features a long, slim handle from which extends a spatula like protrusion that has an alternating pattern of dots on it that makes this surface suited for slight filing. Not as abrasive as a file this rasp can be used for the mild reshaping of bone or more delicate semi-solid tissue layers such as bone to prevent sharp edges from causing damage to other adjacent tissue or vasculature.

double-ended, plain serrations, 6.0 mm & 5.0 mm wide ends, 7" (17.5 cm) Bone File #33 is ideally suit for use in neurosurgical and orthopedic surgeries that require manipulation of bone in and around delicate tissue structures. This type of instrument can be useful in filing down the skull in procedures like craniotomies or in reshaping the vertebral arch during laminectomies or hemi-laminectomies. This gives added protection to the brain tissue or neurovascular bundles that can pass over these cut surfaces that may be jagged and could cause additionally injury or trauma. Additionally this file is double ended with plain serrations and features a 6.0 mm and 5.0 mm wide ends.
