Kyphoplasty systems
Medicon
by Medicon eG. Chirurgiemechaniker-Genossenschaft
A hand-held, single-blade surgical instrument, bevelled on one side, designed to cut and shape bone during orthopaedic surgery. It is hand-held by the operator who uses a surgical mallet or hammer to manually impart a force to the proximal end of the instrument. The distal end (the cutting or shaping edge) is sharp, flat or curved [(concave) - also known as a hollow blade] in design. It is either entirely made of metal (e.g., high-grade stainless steel) or has a metal blade with a handle made of synthetic material (e.g., Tufnol). This is a reusable device.
