Markwalder Bone Cutting Forceps

Description

Markwalder Bone Cutting Forceps

Markwalder bone cutting forceps measure 20 cm and give a strong, controlled bite. They trim bone, fragments and bony edges in a range of procedures.

Mid-length reach

At 20 cm, the forceps reach medium-depth bones. Therefore they suit spinal, thoracic and limb work. Additionally, the handles give good leverage without feeling bulky.

The cutting action

Two sharp jaws meet to divide bone. Meanwhile, the handles amplify grip strength. As a result, firm bone yields with a single squeeze.

Who uses Markwalder bone cutting forceps

Spine and orthopedic surgeons use them to trim processes and edges. Also, thoracic surgeons may use them on ribs. Also, they suit general bone trays well.

Practical tips

Keep the jaws square to the bone for a clean cut. Then remove fragments promptly. Clear vision helps avoid soft tissue.

Fragment handling

After each cut, small bone pieces can stay in the wound. Therefore remove them promptly with forceps or suction. Also, count larger fragments if you plan to use them as graft.
