Bionex Kerrison Punch, Stainless Steel
An autoclavable stainless steel Kerrison punch used in ENT and spinal surgery for precise, controlled removal of bone or tissue in confined spaces.
The Bionex Kerrison Punch is a stainless steel surgical instrument used to remove small amounts of bone or tissue with a punching, rather than cutting, action, a technique that gives the surgeon more control in confined anatomical spaces than a standard bone cutter would allow. In ENT surgery, it is commonly used during sinus and nasal procedures where precise bone removal is needed close to delicate structures, and the same punching mechanism is widely used in spinal surgery to remove bone from around the spinal canal during decompression procedures.
The instrument's footplate is inserted into the target space and the handle is squeezed to close the upper jaw, cleanly punching out a small section of bone or tissue with each bite. Made from durable stainless steel, it is autoclavable and built to keep a reliable cutting edge through repeated use and sterilisation cycles, which matters for an instrument that depends on precision to work safely near critical structures.
ENT surgeons, neurosurgeons and orthopaedic spine surgeons rely on Kerrison punches as a core part of their surgical instrument sets. As with other reusable stainless steel instruments, it must be cleaned, disinfected and sterilised between cases.
