Love-Gruenwald Ivd Rongeur

4.0 mm x 10.0 mm jaws Schlesinger IVD Rongeur is a unique instrument designed for use in manipulation and handling of intervertebral discs. This can be useful in spinal procedures such as discectomies for treatment of herniated discs or other neurosurgical orthopedic surgeries in which the IVD are manipulated. These rongeur features ring handles for ease in manual operation as well as serrated jaws that aids in their ability to effectively grip the IVD. It is available in 5" or 6" and straight, angled up or angled down making it well suited for a vast array of surgical interventions and surgeon preferences.

1.5 mm x 10.0 mm slender jaws Cushing Slender Rongeur is an instrument ideally suited for use in neurosurgical orthopedic procedures that require cutting or clipping of the intervertebral discs (IVDs). This fibrocartilagenous layer lies between the vertebrae of the spine. A variety of spinal procedures including discectomies require manipulation of IVDs and this rongeur is designed to do so. It features a ring handle design which aids in manual operation as well as the jaws being set at an angle from the handles allowing them to be immersed in the field while the handles are still easily accessible. This instrument is available in two lengths 7" and 9" and either straight or angled up or down.

serrated, 6.0 mm x 10.0 mm jaws, 5" (12.5 cm) Cloward-Style Rongeur is an instrument ideally suited for use in neurosurgical orthopedic procedures. Specifically these rongeurs are made for handling the fibro-cartilaginous layers between each vertebrae which are the intervertebral discs. This instrument has ring handles and the jaws are set at an angle from the handle which allows for the handle to remain accessible while the jaws are deep in the surgical field. Additionally the terminal end with the serrated jaws is available straight, angled up or angled down making it the perfect fit for a vast array of surgical procedures.

fenestrated jaws, 4.0 mm x 8.0 mm, 70 degrees up-angled, 7" (17.8 cm) Jackson IVD Rongeur is a highly specialized instrument made for use in handling the intervertebral discs. Between each bony vertebrae there is a fibro-cartilaginous segment that allows for cushioning of the vertebral column as the patient moves. A number of spinal procedures such as discectomies require the use of such an instrument to surgically repair a herniated disc. The unique design of this rongeur features fenestrated jaws which allows for the pressure applied to be spread over a larger surface area thus reducing any deformation of the IVD.
