Gigli Saw

Advantages

1. Adapting to Complex Surgeries
   In neurosurgery, when performing craniotomy for brain tumor resection, the Gigli saw can precisely cut the skull without damaging surrounding brain tissues, facilitating tumor exposure. It’s also used in skull repair to trim bone edges for better fit with repair materials.

In orthopedic surgery, for fracture treatment in complex areas (e.g., near joints or with complicated bone structures), it can reach narrow spaces for cutting, avoiding unnecessary damage to surrounding tissues.

2. Minimizing Surgical Trauma
   Precise cutting reduces damage to surrounding tissues, minimizing wound size. This helps patients recover faster post – surgery and lowers the risk of infections and other complications.
3. Enhancing Surgical Efficiency
   Surgeons can control the blade easily, completing cutting operations quickly and accurately, shortening surgery time—crucial for urgent or long – duration complex surgeries.

Applications

1. Neurosurgery
   Used in craniotomy for brain tumor removal, creating an optimal surgical field. Also applied in skull repair surgeries to trim and shape skull edges for proper fitting of repair materials.
2. Orthopedic Surgery
   Essential in fracture reduction surgeries, especially for complex fractures (e.g., long bone, intra – articular, pelvic fractures). It helps cut and reshape bones as needed. In joint replacement surgeries, it’s used to cut and prepare bones for accurate 假体 (prosthesis) implantation.
3. Maxillofacial Surgery
   In maxillofacial surgeries like orthognathic surgery and maxillofacial tumor resection, the Gigli saw cuts maxillofacial bones, enabling precise bone adjustment and repair to restore facial appearance and function.
