Orthopaedic osteotome blades are reusable surgical tools designed to cut or reshape bone during orthopaedic procedures. Attached to a separate handle, they function like a chisel, allowing surgeons to precisely shape bone surfaces through controlled percussion.
These blades are typically made from high-grade stainless steel and come in flat or concave shapes with bevelled edges. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified as surgical instruments and must meet safety and performance standards for reuse in clinical settings.
