Lane Bone Holding Forceps with a ratchet are surgical instruments designed for grasping, holding, and stabilizing bone fragments during orthopedic procedures. The ratchet mechanism on these forceps allows them to lock in place once pressure is applied, ensuring the bone fragments remain securely positioned throughout the procedure. This is especially useful during fracture reduction or when aligning bones for fixation, as it enables the surgeon to maintain control and keep the bones in the desired position without needing to apply constant manual force.
