Description

Sklar's Caspar detachable rongeur is used in orthopedic procedures, including laminectomies, discectomies and other spinal procedures requiring debulking or removing the vertebral arch. The handle design eases manual operation and effective grip while preserving the structure of the disc. This black Titanium Nitride Coating surface protects the instrument for durability and smoothness, reducing the need for frequent sharpening. A distinguishing feature of the Caspar, the cupped tip is serrated and fenestrated. It is available straight, angled up or angled down. The Caspar is available in different lengths and bite sizes. When the back hammer is pulled, the crossbar detaches from the shank, easing sterilization.
