Lebsche Sternal Chisel is an instrument commonly used in cardiothoracic procedures specifically in procedures involving splitting the sternum. This chisel is ideally used in a midline sternotomy where it is necessary to make an incision and create a split down the midline of the sternum. The chisel shaped instrument can be hit with a driving force such as a mallet to generate the power needed to split the bone.
