- Primarily used in specialized surgical fields for precise dissection in sensitive areas where protecting underlying structures is critical
Uses
- Neurosurgery:
- Frequently used for dural dissection and other delicate intracranial or spinal procedures
- Vascular Surgery:
- Utilized for opening vessels or separating fine tissue layers
- Veterinary Medicine:
- Employed in various animal health surgeries requiring high-precision cutting
Features
- Probe Tips:
- The most distinctive feature is the ball-tipped (probe) ends on the blades, which allow the surgeon to probe and separate tissue without the risk of accidental punctures
- Blade Profile:
- Features slightly curved blades that provide a better angle for visualization and access in deep or narrow surgical sites
- Dimensions:
- Measures approximately 8 inches (20.3cm) in total length
- Material:
- Forged from high-grade German surgical stainless steel, ensuring long-lasting sharpness and corrosion resistance
- Grade:
- Classified as OR-grade, meeting the rigorous standards required for operating room use
Benefits
- Enhanced Safety:
- The probe tips serve as a guard, significantly reducing the risk of unintended trauma to delicate nerves, vessels, or membranes during dissection
- Superior Control:
- The ergonomic finger-ring handle design and balanced weight provide the "surgical feel" necessary for intricate, high-stakes maneuvers
- Longevity:
- Its premium German steel construction allows for repeated autoclaving and sterilization without compromising the integrity of the instrument
- Accuracy:
- The slight curve of the blades allows for more precise cutting in contoured surgical fields compared to straight dissecting scissors
