What Is a Gigli Saw?

This instrument consists of a fine, flexible wire twisted to form a saw. The Gigli twisted wire saw is typically used to cut bone during surgical procedures. Its design allows for controlled cutting, making it ideal for delicate operations where precision is paramount. The saw is available in different lengths and can be adapted to various surgical needs.

The Gigli saw blade is essentially the wire itself, designed to be sharp enough to cut through bone without causing excessive trauma to surrounding tissues. The blade’s flexibility allows it to navigate around anatomical structures, making it useful in confined spaces. Surgeons can effectively use the saw to perform osteotomies, remove bone fragments or cut through dense tissue, allowing for a versatile approach to surgical challenges.

The saws have hard edges which hold their sharpness to ensure clean, even cuts to help minimize skin damage to the patient. There are a variety of patterns including Gigli which is a flexible wire saw consisting of long thin tempered steel blades arranged in an oval shape with finger rings at either end.

Gigli Wire Saw Uses

Gigli saws are commonly used in surgery and orthopedic procedures, such as limb amputations, joint resections and fracture treatment. The saw’s design allows for smooth and controlled cutting, which is key to maintaining the integrity of surrounding tissues and structures.

The Gigli saw wire extends beyond just cutting bone. Its flexibility and sharpness enable it to be used in various surgical contexts, including:

  • Osteotomies: Making precise cuts in the bone to realign or reshape it.
  • Amputations: Allowing for controlled removal of limbs with minimal trauma.
  • Fracture management: Assisting in the removal of bone fragments or in the stabilization of fractured bones.
  • Neurosurgical procedures: Facilitating access to the brain by cutting through the skull.

To effectively utilize the Gigli saw, surgeons must maintain a steady hand and apply consistent tension on the wire to ensure smooth cutting. The saw moves the wire back and forth, allowing the twisted design to grip and cut through the bone.
