ACE Medical Company Kerrison Rongeurs

Length matters more than preference in spine surgery, it’s about achieving optimal exposure, ergonomics, and outcomes. Our most popular Kerrison Rongeur length, 8”, strikes the perfect balance: long enough to reach most targets while compact enough to maintain precise control. But because no patient anatomy is the same, we offer a full range of lengths from 5” (pediatric-specific) to 14”, ensuring you have the exact instrument tailored to each case.

Precision starts with the right bite width every millimeter counts when working near critical neural and vascular structures. For cervical procedures, narrower bites between 1mm and 3mm provide safety in tight spaces, while lumbar surgeries benefit from a wider 1mm to 6mm range for effective bone removal. Half sizes and a specialized 0.8mm option in select lengths give you unparalleled finesse in confined areas.

The footplate defines your surgical field, cutting path, and control, so selecting the right profile is crucial. Our standard footplate is built for powerful lumbar dissection, the thin footplate offers delicate access in cervical or lumbar regions, and the ultra-thin footplate provides maximum visibility and precision in narrow corridors. Choose the footplate that enhances your technique rather than limits it.

Ready to elevate your surgical precision and control? Explore our full range of Kerrison Rongeurs designed to fit your anatomy and surgical style, because the right instrument makes all the difference.

Kerrison Rongeur

Length – Select with Intention

In spine surgery, length is not a matter of preference, it is a matter of performance. The wrong size risks compromising exposure, ergonomics, and ultimately, the outcome. Our most frequently selected Kerrison Rongeur, the 8” delivers a balanced solution: long enough for (most) reach, compact enough for control.

But patient anatomy is never one-size-fits-all. That’s why we offer every standard length—from 7” through 14”, including a newly developed 5” Pediatric model, purpose-built for smaller frames and delicate work.

The right length isn’t just available; it’s essential. And it’s here.

Bite Width – Cut Precisely, Protect Rigorously

Every pass matters. The bite width of your Kerrison Rongeur determines not just how much you remove, but how safely you work around critical neural and vascular structures.

  • 1 mm to 3 mm is standard for cervical cases, where margin for error is razor thin.
  • 1 mm to 6 mm is preferred in lumbar procedures, where more volume must be cleared.
  • Half sizes and our precise 0.8 mm option, available in 7” and 8” models, allow unmatched finesse where space is limited.

Your work demands accuracy. Your instrument should deliver nothing less.

Footplate Options – Match Exposure to Execution

The footplate is more than a structural component it defines your field of view, your cutting path, and your level of control. A mismatch here compromises the case. That’s why we’ve engineered multiple footplate profiles to meet the full spectrum of surgical needs.

  • Standard Footplate: Our most robust option, engineered for gross dissection and powerful lumbar work.
  • Thin Footplate: Refined for cervical exposure or lumbar, allowing delicate entry between neural structures.
  • Ultra-Thin Footplate: Designed for maximum visibility and precision in tight corridors particularly effective against posterior osteophytes.

Choose the footplate that elevates, not limits your surgical technique.
