 More facts
  • The Kerrison rongeur is used to remove bone.  It takes small 'bites' of bone at a time.  It comes in various sizes and angles.
  • When used, upward traction must be used during placement and use to prevent trauma to soft tissue below the bone      (i.e. dura).
  • The small screw along the grip should be checked prior to and during use, to ensure it does not become loose during use.
