Useful general purpose bone holder for maintaining reduction during I/M pinning. Can also be used during plating procedures, passing drills & screws through the jaw centre.
Useful for bending, holding and cutting small pins and wires. Used in conjunction with bone plate benders for contouring smaller plates. Will cut arthrodesis and ‘K’ wires to a maximum of 2.0mm with care. The industrial version will stain and rust with autoclaving – lubricate well to reduce, and store dry.
Designed for deepening the trochlea groove, the trochlea rasp has a range of diameters to suit breeds from chihuahuas to bull terriers. For larger breeds perform a wedge or block trochleaplasty using a hard backed saw. An accurately contoured trochlea is essential for a successful trochleaplasty. Articular cartilage is removed to be replaced by fibrocartilage. Total length 190mm.
Use to hold a plate in position on the bone. Ball tips engage the plate holes. Also useful as a fragment forcep in young, soft bone, as the balls prevent over penetration.
Kerns give a very firm controllable grip, aiding manipulation and reduction of fragments. A quick release ratchet locks the jaws. Useful in general orthopaedics and for surgery around the hip
