Erich Lexer was a German surgeon active in the early twentieth century who pioneered modern plastic and reconstructive surgery. His name attaches today most prominently to the Lexer bone-cutting forceps used in osteotomy and bone resection. The Lexer’s characteristic feature is the heavy curved cutting jaws on a long shaft, providing the mechanical advantage needed to cut hard cortical bone with controlled force. Standard in bone-surgery and orthopaedic sets. Lengths of 18 cm, 22 cm, and 25 cm are common. Modern Lexer forceps are typically made from AISI 440 or 17-4 PH stainless for the cutting jaws, with hardened tips for sustained cutting performance across thousands of autoclave cycles.

The LEXER x =25 mm,Ferrozell handle 220mm 22cm (Ref BS 14-242-06) is part of the Fizza Surgical instrument catalogue, manufactured under ISO 13485:2016.

Manufacturing compliance is verified through ISO 13485:2016 certification (the international medical-device quality standard), CE marking under EU MDR 2017/745, and FDA establishment registration. Certificate copies and regulatory documentation are available on request for inclusion in hospital procurement files and EU technical documentation packages. Sterilization validation follows ISO 17665 for steam autoclave at 134 °C.
