Abstract

This study compares 3 different saw types to determine which is best suited for integration into a minimally invasive bone saw. A handheld electric jigsaw, a coping saw, and a Gigli saw were used to cut into porcine ilium. Heat generated was measured using a thermocouple, and forces applied during cutting were recorded using a force/torque sensor. The coping saw generated an average maximum temperature that was 26°C less than that generated using the jigsaw ( P < .001) and 14°C less than that for the Gigli saw ( P < .001). On average, the maximum force applied through the coping saw was 14 N less than that through the jigsaw ( P < .001) and 18 N less than that through the Gigli saw ( P < .001). Out of the 3 saws tested, the coping saw is optimal for cutting bone based on heat generation and required force.
