- A specifically designed for surgeons who require the reach of a 9-inch instrument but the finesse of a smaller, thinner blade for working on fragile tissues
Uses
- Delicate Tissue Dissection:
- Used for cutting and separating fragile soft tissues where standard Metzenbaum blades might be too bulky
- Deep Surgical Access:
- The 9-inch length allows for precise work in deep cavities, such as the thoracic or abdominal areas
- Specialized Fields:
- Heavily utilized in General Surgery, Plastic Surgery, and Veterinary medicine for refined tissue manipulation
Features
- Delicate Blade Profile:
- Features a thinner, more refined blade than the standard 5-186 model, allowing for higher precision in tight or fragile areas
- Long Slender Shank:
- Provides extended reach without sacrificing the tactile "feel" required for delicate procedures
- German Steel:
- Forged from high-quality stainless steel to ensure consistent sharpness and a smooth cutting action
Benefits
- Increased Surgical Precision:
- The delicate pattern minimizes tissue trauma while the straight blades offer better visibility for specific directional cuts
- Reduced Snagging:
- Smoothly beveled box locks and jaw edges are designed to protect surrounding tissue and prevent catching on suture material
- Exceptional Durability:
- Fully tempered locks maintain blade alignment through rigorous use and repeated sterilization cycles
