Rosenstein Forked UKA Tibial Fragment Grasper – Large
Alexander D. Rosenstein, MD
Used to help remove the tibial bone fragment during UKA, the forked upper jaw design helps the instrument to fit around a femoral condyle while the thin lower jaw slips through the osteotomy site
The reverse-angled teeth under the upper jaw firmly grip the tibial fragment through its entire length, allowing removal of the fragile wafer of tibial bone without breaking it. This unique design helps deploy the instrument in tight medial or lateral compartments of the knee joint. The angled design keeps the surgeon’s hands out of the way and facilitates visualization.
