Bone Surgical Lambotte

In bone surgery, “Lambotte” typically refers to Lambotte osteotomes or Lambotte bone chisels. These are specialized surgical instruments used for cutting and shaping bone during orthopedic procedures. They are named after Albin Lambotte, a Belgian surgeon known for his contributions to orthopedic surgery.

Lambotte Osteotomes:
Lambotte osteotomes are surgical instruments designed with a chisel-like blade at one end and a handle at the other. They are used to cut through bone tissue with precision during procedures such as osteotomies (bone cuts), bone grafting, and joint surgeries. The blade of a Lambotte osteotome may be straight or angled, depending on the specific surgical application.

Lambotte Bone Chisels:
Lambotte bone chisels are similar to osteotomes but may have a wider blade or a different shape. They are used to shape or contour bone tissue, remove bone spurs, or perform precise bone resections during orthopedic surgeries. Like osteotomes, Lambotte bone chisels come in various sizes and configurations to accommodate different surgical needs and anatomical structures.

Both Lambotte osteotomes and bone chisels are essential tools in orthopedic surgery, allowing surgeons to perform precise bone cuts and manipulations while minimizing trauma to surrounding tissues. These instruments are known for their durability, reliability, and ergonomic design, making them a popular choice among orthopedic surgeons worldwide.
