Description

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 an adequate 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, in order to accommodate different procedures. Sharp tips allow precise dissection and cutting of delicate tissue, while blunt tipped blades are used more often for dissecting and cutting mucus membranes. Sklarcut scissors feature micro-serrations on one blade to reduce trauma when cutting both delicate and course tissue. These serrations assist in securely holding the tissue during cutting and minimizes tissue from slipping so the most accurate and clean cuts can be made. Sklarcut scissors are identified by a single gold coated finger ring on the handle of the serrated blade.

Is the handle design ergonomic for delicate procedures?

Absolutely. The tenotomy style features long handles that provide enhanced surgeon control and grip. This design is crucial for precise dissection, especially when working in confined or narrow anatomical spaces.

Can these scissors cut both delicate and coarse tissues?

Yes, the dual-edge configuration with one standard edge and one micro-serrated edge offers great versatility. This allows for precise cutting of both delicate and coarser tissues.

Are these scissors made from high-quality materials?

These scissors are constructed from stainless steel and are classified as Sklar Premium or Grade, which indicates a high-quality, reusable surgical tool designed for durability and performance.

Yes, these Sklarcut™ Stevens Tenotomy Scissors are ideal for delicate dissection and cutting procedures in ophthalmology, as well as neurology and plastic surgery.

Are the tips safe for working with sensitive tissues?

Yes, the scissors feature blunt/blunt (B/B) tips, which are particularly suited for dissecting and cutting softer tissues like mucus membranes, minimizing the risk of accidental punctures.

Are these scissors ready for immediate use?

No, these scissors are supplied non-sterile and require proper processing, such as sterilization, before their initial use in a surgical procedure.

Is natural rubber latex used in the construction?

No, these scissors are not made with natural rubber latex, making them suitable for use in environments where latex allergies are a concern.
