Stille-Ruskin Bone Rongeur

Catalogue reference BS 14-840-00 — Stille-Ruskin Bone Rongeur, supplied to hospitals, distributors, and OEM partners.

Rongeur is not a single eponym but a class of bone-cutting forceps with cup-shaped jaws designed to bite away small pieces of bone — used in laminectomy, neurosurgery, ENT (sinus surgery), and dental procedures. Numerous specific patterns exist: Kerrison rongeur (laminectomy), Cushing rongeur (neurosurgery), and Stille rongeur (general bone work). The defining feature across patterns is the cup-shaped distal jaw that takes a small bite of bone with each closure, letting the surgeon remove bone in controlled increments rather than a single cut. Modern rongeurs are made from hardened tool-grade stainless for the cutting edges to retain sharpness; tungsten carbide insert variants extend service life.
