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, sharp/sharp tips, and a length of 4-1/2 inches. It also features a delicate pattern.
