Gigli Saw
A Gigli saw is a flexible wire surgical instrument used primarily for cutting bone.
It consists of a twisted stainless steel wire with handles attached at both ends, allowing surgeons to perform controlled sawing motions.
Core Features:
- Wire Design: Made of braided or twisted stainless steel wire, providing strength and flexibility.
- Handles: Detachable T-shaped or loop handles are attached to each end for grip and control.
- Flexibility: Can be maneuvered around bones in confined or difficult-to-access areas.
- Sterilizable: Resistant to corrosion and suitable for repeated sterilization cycles.
Applications:
- Orthopedic Surgery: Cutting through bones during amputations or reconstructive procedures.
- Neurosurgery: Craniotomies, where the saw is used to cut the skull bone.
- General Surgery: Amputations and procedures requiring precise bone division.
- Field/Trauma Surgery: Lightweight and portable, making it useful in emergency or military settings.
Advantages:
- Simple, lightweight, and easy to use.
- Provides precise bone cutting with minimal trauma to surrounding tissue.
- Flexible design allows access to areas where rigid saws cannot reach.
- Cost-effective compared to powered surgical saws.
The Gigli saw is a flexible wire bone-cutting instrument widely used in orthopedic, neurosurgical, and general surgical procedures, valued for its precision, portability, and ease of use.
