Description
Landolt Laminectomy Rongeur
The Landolt laminectomy rongeur bites bone from the lamina and spinous process during spinal surgery. Its long shaft lets surgeons reach deep lumbar levels comfortably.
A long shaft for depth
Deep spinal wounds need a rongeur that reaches without crowding the opening. So this pattern places the jaws at the end of a 200 mm shaft. As a result, the hand stays above the wound while the jaws work below.
Dimensions
We offer one size: 28 cm overall with a 200 mm shaft. For bite size or jaw details, write to us first, because those details vary between catalogs. Also, the rongeur appears in our rongeurs range.
Its job in a decompression
Surgeons remove bone in stages during a laminectomy. First, larger rongeurs take the spinous process. Next, the Landolt laminectomy rongeur can nibble the lamina. Then Kerrison punches refine the edges close to the dura.
When to choose this rongeur
Choose it when you need extra reach, for example in larger patients or deep lumbar work. In contrast, shallow cervical cases may suit a shorter rongeur. Many services keep both lengths on hand.
Caring for your Landolt laminectomy rongeur
Open the jaws and brush out bone fragments once the case closes. Next, flush the joint and the length of the shaft. Then dry the rongeur, oil the joint, and sterilize it.

Making your order
A workmanship flaw on this rongeur would fall under our three-year warranty. We also cycle the jaws and inspect the rongeur by hand in Atlanta before it ships. The FAQ area explains payment and delivery. As for material, we cite ASTM F899, a specification for stainless steels in surgical tools. For a shorter bayonet pattern, see the Gruenwald laminectomy rongeur. Our neurosurgery tools category lists more.
