Explore the Ferris Smith Kerrison Punch for Neurosurgery
The Ferris Smith Kerrison Punch is a crucial specialized tool used by neurosurgeons for the precise extraction of small bone fragments, particularly within the vertebral lamina, to alleviate pressure on the spinal cord. Equipped with adjustable tip angles of 90° and 130°, along with an ergonomic plier-type handle, this punch provides optimal control and adaptability to the diverse anatomical configurations encountered in neurosurgery.
Its design allows for easy manipulation and increased surgical precision. The biting tip, adjustable for sizes ranging from 1.0 to 6.0 mm, ensures adaptation to the specific morphology of the vertebrae, while the various available angles allow surgeons to tailor their approach to the specific requirements of each intervention.
The integrated spring mechanism in the handle ensures smooth closure of the tip, thus ensuring smooth and secure control during procedures. Additionally, the presence of a horn at the back of the handle provides additional stability and reduces the risk of slippage, ensuring a safe and efficient working environment for the surgeon.
Crafted from high-quality stainless steel, this punch is designed to withstand the rigors of repeated surgical use while maintaining optimal performance. Its durability and reliability make it an indispensable tool in any operating room, offering neurosurgeons an effective means of treating spinal cord and spinal pathologies with precision and safety.
