Kerrison Rongeur Spurling 7" 175mm 2mm 40° up

Controlled Access for General and Neurosurgical Rongeur Work

The Kerrison Rongeur Spurling 7" 175mm 2mm 40° up is a surgical rongeur designed for controlled removal of small amounts of material where a directed upward bite and extended working reach are useful. Its 2mm bite size supports measured, task-focused work, while the 40° up configuration helps position the working end for access in procedures requiring a specific approach. The Spurling handle provides a defined format for instrument handling during general surgery and neurosurgery workflows. With an overall length of 7" and a 175mm working length, it supports access while keeping the hand positioned away from the immediate operative field.

Use Cases

• Perform controlled biting and removal tasks where a 2mm rongeur bite is appropriate.
• Use the 40° up orientation when an upward-directed working approach supports access and instrument positioning.
• Apply in general surgery workflows requiring a Kerrison-style rongeur for precise, localized removal.
• Use in neurosurgical workflows where the Spurling pattern, extended reach, and angled bite support the planned operative approach.
• Handle through the Spurling configuration during procedures that require deliberate, incremental instrument control.

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the instrument according to facility protocols and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the bite, angled working end, handle, and moving parts for visible damage, residue, or impaired movement before use.
• Handle the 40° up working end carefully during transport, cleaning, and setup to help protect its alignment.
• Store the rongeur in a manner that prevents impact, crowding, or contact damage to the working end.

General use; follow facility protocols.
