11-1078-26 | Lange-Hohmann Modified Bone Lever
The 11-1078-26 Lange-Hohmann Modified Bone Lever provides a longer, narrow-profile option
for orthopedic teams that need controlled access to bone during exposure and manipulation. It
is available in two configurations: 26.5 cm with a 30 mm size and 28 cm with a 33 mm size. The
variation in length and width allows the instrument to be selected according to the operative field
rather than treating every retraction or levering task the same way. It belongs within bone surgery instruments used for orthopedic and trauma procedures.
The Lange-Hohmann pattern is commonly associated with bone exposure and retraction. In
practice, its usefulness comes from combining reach with a defined working surface. A longer
instrument can help the surgeon work around deeper structures while maintaining the hand
outside the immediate operative area.
Why the two configurations matter:
● 26.5 cm / 30 mm: Offers a slightly shorter reach with a narrower working dimension for
more localized exposure.
● 28 cm / 33 mm: Adds both length and working width when the operative field calls for a
little more reach and coverage.
● Bone lever configuration: Supports controlled positioning and retraction during
orthopedic procedures where access to the bone surface is important.
● Size selection: Having two closely related options allows the surgical team to match the
instrument more carefully to anatomy and approach.
This modified Lange-Hohmann pattern is suited to orthopedic trays where predictable access
and controlled manipulation are important. Stock the appropriate configuration alongside other
bone exposure instruments for dependable case preparation.
