Mandibular osteotomy chisel - Stumped


Posted: Dec 22, 2010

Doing a LeFort I and sagittal split osteotomy, MD dictates he used bibeveled chisels and s/l Harguss chisels to separate the proximal and distal segments. 

Just when I thought I had their terminology down pat, somebody gave them a new piece of Christmas in the staff grab bag!

I know there is a Hargis retractor. nm - mt2
