11-1217-14 | Micro Friedman Rongeur
Fine bone removal calls for a rongeur that can reach restricted anatomy without bringing
unnecessary bulk into the operative field. The 11-1217-14 Micro Friedman Rongeur is a 14 cm
(5 1/2 inch) single-action instrument with a 90 degree angled configuration and delicate 2.4 x 8
mm jaws. These dimensions give it a specialized role in procedures requiring controlled removal
of small amounts of bone. It belongs within the dedicated range of bone surgery instruments used for orthopedic and neurosurgical procedures.
The angled shaft changes the approach available to the surgeon. Rather than approaching the
target only along a straight axis, the 90 degree configuration allows access from an alternate
direction. The small jaw dimensions are also important because they limit the working area to a
more localized bite.
Instrument-specific advantages include:
● 14 cm length: Provides a practical balance between access and close control.
● 90 degree angle: Facilitates work in areas where a straight rongeur may not provide the
preferred approach.
● 2.4 x 8 mm jaws: Offer a delicate working profile for localized bone removal.
● Single-action mechanism: Provides a direct opening and closing action during
controlled resection.
● Micro Friedman pattern: Particularly relevant to fine bone work in confined surgical
anatomy.
The product page identifies applications, including laminectomy, foraminotomy, and spinal
decompression procedures. Its delicate configuration makes it appropriate for cases where the
surgeon needs a smaller working end rather than a high-capacity rongeur.
For neurosurgical and orthopedic teams, the 11-1217-14 provides a specialized solution for
controlled bone removal. Add this Micro Friedman Rongeur to your procedure set.
