11-1289-15 | Ruskin-Mini Bone Rongeur
A smaller rongeur can be valuable when the operative site does not justify a long shaft or broad
working end. The 11-1289-15 Ruskin-Mini Bone Rongeur measures 15.25 cm, or 6 inches, and
has a curved configuration with an 18 mm working dimension listed by the manufacturer. Its
compact size gives the surgeon a different handling option from longer Ruskin and Stille-Leur
models.
The curved profile is particularly relevant because it changes the direction from which the
working end approaches bone. Combined with a 15.25 cm shaft, the design can provide close
access without introducing an unnecessarily long instrument into the field.
What distinguishes this compact pattern:
● 15.25 cm length: Provides close manual control for procedures where extended reach
is unnecessary.
● 6 inch format: Makes the instrument easy to identify and organize within a surgical tray.
● Curved configuration: Allows the working end to approach bone from an offset angle.
● 18 mm working dimension: Provides a defined working area while maintaining the
compact character of the instrument.
● Ruskin-Mini pattern: Gives the surgical team a smaller alternative to standard Ruskin
rongeurs.
The 11-1289-15 is well suited to instrument sets that need more than one size of bone rongeur.
A smaller curved model can complement larger instruments when working conditions change
from one procedure to another.
Within a range of bone surgery instruments, size and working-end configuration should be
considered together. The Ruskin-Mini provides a compact combination of both.
