Description

Curved Kerrison Rongeurs were made for the foramen. The curve of the shaft carries the footplate out and around the pedicle so you can decompress a narrowed foramen without removing more of the facet than you need to.

We offer six curve profiles: Standard, Slight, Lesser, Slight Curve with Short Footplate, and Slight Curve Twisted Left or Right for reaching laterally from either side. Each comes in 2, 3 or 4mm bite widths, with a thin or ultra-thin footplate that slips beneath tight bone and ligament.

Like every Wiggins Kerrison, these are hand finished, carry our signature black non-glare coating and are built to be reprocessed and sharpened for years of service. Since 1992, surgeons have trusted the Original Black Kerrison to bite clean and last.
