Description

Sklar Stevens Tenotomy Scissors are used for delicate dissection and cutting, commonly in ophthalmologic, neurological, and plastic surgery procedures. Tenotomy scissors have long handles and small, sharp blades with sharp or blunt wedge-shaped tips. The long handles allow the surgeon to have a firm grip and control while dissecting or cutting in small or narrow areas. Stevens tenotomy scissors are available straight or curved and with sharp or blunt tips. Sharp tips allow precise dissection and cutting of delicate tissue, while blunt tipped blades are used more often for dissecting and cutting mucus membranes. This product is straight with smooth edges, blunt/blunt tips and a length of 4-1/2 inches. It also features a delicate pattern.

Can these instruments withstand repeated sterilization cycles?

Absolutely. Constructed from high-quality stainless steel, these scissors are built for durability and are classified as a reusable instrument. They are designed to maintain their integrity and performance through repeated professional sterilization procedures.

Does the handle design assist with precision work?

Yes, the instrument features elongated handles that provide surgeons with:

Superior control and maneuverability.
A firm, comfortable grip.
Enhanced accessibility when operating within confined or narrow anatomical spaces.

Is this instrument safe for patients with latex allergies?

Yes, this product is 100% latex-free. It is not made with any natural rubber latex, ensuring it meets safety standards for patients with latex sensitivities.

Are these scissors ready to use straight out of the box?

The scissors are supplied non-sterile. Therefore, they must be properly cleaned and subjected to a standard sterilization cycle before their first clinical use to ensure they meet sterile field requirements.

Are these scissors compliant with surgical standards?

Yes, this instrument is TAA Compliant and manufactured to rigorous standards. Being a Factory New product from Sklar, it represents a high-grade tool suitable for professional ophthalmic, neurologic, and plastic surgery environments.

Is this a specialized instrument for micro-surgical tasks?

It is indeed. The combination of a slender profile, straight configuration, and blunt/blunt tips makes this tool ideal for micro-surgical environments where extreme precision and controlled, fine-tuned dissection are required.

What kind of quality guarantee comes with these scissors?

These scissors are backed by a Lifetime Warranty, reflecting the manufacturer’s commitment to the quality, durability, and craftsmanship of the stainless steel used in their construction.

How do the finger rings feel during extended procedures?

The scissors feature standard finger rings designed to provide a secure and stable hold. Their ergonomic shape allows for steady, reliable control, which is essential when performing meticulous work during longer, highly focused surgical procedures.

Why is the blunt/blunt tip configuration preferred?

The Blunt/Blunt (b/b) configuration is specifically chosen for procedures where tissue trauma must be minimized. The rounded, non-sharp tips allow surgeons to dissect and separate delicate membranes without the risk of accidental puncture or unnecessary cutting of surrounding healthy tissue.
