Rasp, retrograde

The Retrograde Rasp is a precision bone-removal instrument for controlled shaping and widening of bony structures in minimally invasive and endoscopic surgery. It comes in four head diameters, from 5.1 mm to 8.8 mm, all with a 260 mm working length for deep surgical access.

The distal end has a rounded rasp head with spiral cutting flutes. The flutes are designed to cut on the retrograde (pull-back) stroke, so bone is removed as the surgeon draws the instrument back towards themselves. This lets the surgeon work safely behind or underneath bony edges, where pushing forward would be risky. The rounded, blunt front of the head helps protect delicate structures during insertion, and the narrower neck behind the head gives clear space for the rasp to work.

Laser-etched depth markings along the shaft show how deep the rasp has gone, for controlled, measured bone removal. The proximal end has a coupling for a handle. The rasp is made from high-grade surgical stainless steel, so it is durable, corrosion-resistant, and can be autoclaved for repeated sterilization.
