Description
Gigli wire saw sets are specialized surgical instruments designed for cutting bone through a sawing action in orthopedic and neurological procedures . The SAG Surgical Gigli wire saw set (25 Inches) includes two ergonomic handles and a flexible twisted wire blade, engineered for precise bone cutting during amputations, osteotomies, and cranial surgeries .
The Gigli wire saw is uniquely crafted with a flexible wire composed of multiple stainless steel wires twisted together to create cutting surfaces along all edges and sides . The 25-inch (63.5 cm) length of this Gigli wire saw wire provides versatility for various surgical applications . Each end of the wire is finished with a loop designed to attach securely to the detachable handles .
The Gigli wire saw set features a design that has been used for centuries for precise applications, refined for modern surgical excellence . The twisted wire construction on this Gigli wire saw creates a serrated cutting surface with 360 degrees of flexible cutting action, making quick work of bone removal . The ergonomic T-handles on this Gigli wire saw set provide a comfortable, secure grip and reduce hand fatigue during prolonged surgical procedures .
Gigli wire saws are used across multiple medical specialties including orthopedics, neurosurgery, and trauma surgery . This Gigli wire saw assists surgeons in amputations, osteotomies, and cranial procedures where a smooth and consistent cutting motion is required . During amputation, surgeons pull back and forth on each handle, applying varying amounts of pressure and speed to generate sawing motions . The flexible design of this Gigli wire saw allows the wire to be fed through narrow openings, such as holes drilled in the skull, for precise cutting .
Recent clinical studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of Gigli wire saws in novel surgical techniques, including intramedullary decompression for pan-osseous osteomyelitis in children  and percutaneous osteotomy during Ilizarov-based limb lengthening procedures .
Gigli wire saws are manufactured to the highest standards using premium stainless steel . This ensures that every Gigli wire saw instrument maintains its cutting effectiveness and functionality even after repeated sterilization cycles. This Gigli wire saw set is fully reusable and can be sterilized using moist heat or steam sterilization . The wire is typically considered for single use due to the amount of organic material embedded during procedures .
SAG Surgical takes pride in offering premium Gigli wire saw sets that meet the demanding requirements of modern orthopedic and neurosurgical practice. Every Gigli wire saw undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure consistent performance.
