Sklar Edge TC Mayo Bariatric Dissecting Scissors - 16", Straight

Sklar Edge TC Mayo Dissecting Scissors are a modification of standard Mayo scissors that provide an exceptionally hard and durable cutting edge designed to stay sharp for a significantly longer period of time than standard scissors. Sklar permanently bonds the tungsten carbide inserts to the blade of the scissors which maximizes control and precision as well. Mayo Scissors are a versatile instrument that can be used in multiple procedures and settings. They are available straight or curved, in a variety of lengths, and have a standard beveled blade. While the curved instrument is most commonly utilized for cutting or dissecting dense or deep tissue, and the straight version is typically used for cutting surface tissue or sutures, both may be used interchangeably depending on procedure and physician preference. Longer lengths are most commonly used in surgeries such as gastric bypass, gastric banding, and sleeve gastrectomy. Identified by the handle of two gold coated finger rings these Sklar Edge TC scissors are straight with smooth, blunt/blunt blades, and a length of 16 inches.
