Kerrison Rongeur, Micro, 9″ (225mm) 1mm, 40° up Panther

The Kerrison Rongeur Micro 9″ (225mm) 1mm 40° Up Panther is a high-precision surgical instrument specifically designed for delicate bone removal in spinal, neurosurgical, and orthopedic procedures. It is widely used in operations such as laminectomy, laminotomy, and spinal decompression, where controlled and accurate removal of small bone fragments is essential for patient safety and optimal surgical outcomes.

Engineered with a 1mm micro cutting tip, this Kerrison Rongeur allows surgeons to perform extremely precise bone bites with minimal disruption to surrounding neural and soft tissues. The fine tip is particularly beneficial in procedures involving narrow spinal canals and delicate anatomical structures, where accuracy is critical to avoid nerve damage.

The 40° upward-angled jaw design enhances visibility and access within deep surgical fields. This angulation enables surgeons to approach superior spinal structures more effectively while maintaining a clear line of sight. It is especially useful in posterior spinal approaches, where precision and ergonomic positioning significantly influence surgical efficiency.

With a compact 9-inch (225mm) design, the Kerrison Rongeur Micro Panther offers excellent maneuverability and control. The balanced length allows surgeons to operate comfortably in confined spaces while maintaining stability during repetitive bone removal tasks. This makes it a preferred instrument for minimally invasive spine surgery and complex decompression procedures.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the instrument ensures exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term reliability. It is designed to withstand repeated autoclave sterilization cycles without loss of performance or structural integrity. The robust construction guarantees consistent cutting efficiency even under demanding surgical conditions.

The precision-aligned jaws ensure smooth and controlled bone cutting action. The 1mm bite size provides high accuracy, allowing surgeons to remove bone incrementally and safely. This minimizes the risk of excessive tissue removal and improves overall surgical precision in delicate spinal procedures.

Ergonomic handle design enhances grip stability and reduces hand fatigue during long surgeries. The instrument is carefully balanced to provide optimal tactile feedback and control, allowing surgeons to maintain steady performance throughout procedures. The smooth ratchet mechanism ensures consistent and predictable cutting force, improving surgical reliability.

The Kerrison Rongeur Micro 9″ 1mm 40° Up Panther is widely used in spinal decompression surgeries, cervical and lumbar laminectomies, and neurosurgical bone removal procedures. It is especially effective in removing lamina and small vertebral bone segments that may be compressing neural structures.

The instrument’s polished stainless steel finish improves corrosion resistance and facilitates easy cleaning, ensuring compliance with strict sterilization standards in operating rooms. Its reusable design makes it a cost-effective and sustainable solution for hospitals and surgical centers requiring long-term instrument performance.

In modern spinal surgery, precision and control are essential for achieving successful outcomes. The Kerrison Rongeur Micro Panther series is trusted for its fine cutting ability, ergonomic efficiency, and reliable performance in high-precision neurosurgical environments.
