Our scissors are primarily divided into two main categories: surgical scissors and dissecting scissors. Both types are tailored to the specific requirements of medical procedures and are characterized by their high quality, precision, and durability.
Surgical scissors are versatile instruments typically available in the following configurations:
Straight or curved blades: Depending on the application and the surgeon’s preference.
Blade types:
Blunt-Blunt (ST-ST): Ideal for cutting sutures or dressing materials without damaging tissue.
Sharp-Sharp (SP-SP): Perfect for precise cuts in delicate tissue or during minimally invasive procedures.
Blunt-Sharp (ST-SP): A combination that offers both safety and precision, e.g., for cutting threads or thin materials.
Surgical scissors are commonly used to cut medical supplies such as sutures, dressings, or catheters and are indispensable in every surgical discipline.
Dissecting scissors are specifically designed for tissue dissection. The most well-known and frequently used scissors in this category are the Metzenbaum scissors. They feature fine, long blades that enable precise and gentle tissue dissection.
We offer dissecting scissors in two variants:
Standard version: Made entirely from medical-grade stainless steel, robust and sterilizable.
Supercut (SC): Equipped with micro-serrated edges that ensure slip-resistant cutting and a clean cut.
For even greater sharpness and durability, we also offer scissors with tungsten carbide inserts. These are particularly long-lasting and suitable for demanding applications.
A high-end variant is our combination of tungsten carbide and Supercut, available in models such as the Mayo scissors or Metzenbaum scissors. These scissors offer maximum precision and are ideal for complex surgical procedures.
In addition to surgical and dissecting scissors, we also offer a variety of plaster and bandage scissors. These are specifically designed for cutting gauze, cellulose, and other dressing materials. They feature sturdy blades and ergonomic handles that ensure comfortable and safe use.
Our product range includes a wide variety of scissors for different medical applications, including:
Eye and iris scissors: For precise ophthalmic procedures.
Intestinal, lung, and cartilage scissors: Specialized for surgery of internal organs.
Crown and wire scissors: For dental and orthopedic applications.
Episiotomy and umbilical cord scissors: For obstetric procedures.
Gynecological scissors: For specialized applications in gynecology.
Iridectomy scissors: For precise cuts in ophthalmology.
Ligature scissors: For cutting ligatures.
Nail and skin scissors: For dermatological procedures.
Tendon and corneal scissors: For orthopedic and ophthalmic applications.
Tonsil scissors: Specifically for tonsil removal.
Gum scissors: For dental procedures.
Tungsten carbide (TC) scissors: For the highest demands in sharpness and durability.
High-quality materials: All scissors are made from medical-grade stainless steel or feature tungsten carbide, making them corrosion-resistant, durable, and easy to sterilize.
Ergonomic design: The handles are designed to ensure comfortable and fatigue-free use.
Versatile applications: Our range covers nearly all medical and surgical requirements.
Innovative technologies: With Supercut and tungsten carbide variants, we offer solutions for maximum precision and durability.
Our scissors are indispensable tools in modern medicine and surgery. Whether for tissue dissection, cutting sutures, or processing dressing materials, our products stand out for their precision, quality, and durability. With our comprehensive range and innovative technologies such as Supercut and tungsten carbide, we provide solutions that meet the highest standards.
Surgical scissors are robust and versatile instruments used in nearly all medical fields. They are primarily designed for cutting tissue but are also used for cutting surgical aids such as drainage tubes, dressing materials, and sutures. Due to their universal applicability, surgical scissors are indispensable tools in operating rooms, outpatient clinics, hospital wards, and medical practices.
Surgical standard scissors are available in two basic forms:
Straight scissors: Ideal for superficial cuts and cutting materials.
Curved scissors: Also known as slightly curved scissors, they provide better visibility and access to deeper tissue layers.
The blade tips of these scissors vary depending on the model and application. A special variant of curved scissors is the Cooper scissors, named after the English surgeon Astley Paston Cooper. These scissors feature curved blades and a blunt tip, making them particularly suitable for dissecting fine, thin tissue. They are often used in microsurgery and for precise tissue dissection.
The Metzenbaum scissors, named after the American surgeon Myron F. Metzenbaum, are specialized scissors with a long handle and relatively short blades. This design allows for cutting in deep body regions without the surgeon being hindered by overly wide-open scissor blades. The Metzenbaum scissors are particularly suitable for dissecting delicate tissue and are frequently used in visceral surgery, vascular surgery, and plastic surgery.
The Mayo scissors are robust scissors with outward-facing blades. They are specifically designed for cutting thick and resistant tissue such as fascia, tendons, or ligaments. Due to their stability and sharpness, they are a preferred instrument in general surgery and orthopedic surgery. Mayo scissors are available in both straight and curved versions to meet different requirements.
Surgical scissors are used in a wide range of medical disciplines, including:
Vascular surgery: For cutting vascular tissue.
Neurosurgery: For precise cuts in sensitive nerve tissue.
Gynecology: For procedures such as episiotomy (perineal incision).
Traumatology: For cutting tissue and materials in emergency situations.
Dermatology: For removing skin lesions or preparing skin grafts.
Surgical scissors are made from high-quality medical-grade stainless steel, which is corrosion-resistant, sterilizable, and durable. Some models feature tungsten carbide coatings or titanium coatings to further enhance sharpness and durability. Ergonomic handles ensure comfortable handling and reduce surgeon fatigue during lengthy procedures.
Surgical scissors are indispensable tools in modern medicine. Whether as a standard scissor for universal applications, a Metzenbaum scissor for precise dissections, or a Mayo scissor for robust cuts – each scissor is tailored to specific requirements. With their high quality, precision, and versatility, they play a crucial role in the success of surgical procedures.
