11 Potts-Smith Dissecting Scissors curved

Extended Curved Scissors for Controlled Dissecting Work

The 11" Potts-Smith Dissecting Scissors curved are surgical scissors intended for dissecting work, combining a curved blade profile with an extended overall length for controlled instrument handling. Their form supports measured separation and cutting tasks where the operator benefits from a shaped working end and added reach within the operative field. In cardiovascular procedures and general surgery, they can fit workflows that call for deliberate tissue dissection and access to less direct working angles. The long format may also help keep the hand clear of the immediate site while maintaining purposeful control. Use according to facility protocols and the instrument’s intended technique.

Use Cases

• Perform controlled dissecting and cutting tasks in general surgical procedures.
• Support cardiovascular workflows requiring deliberate dissection with a curved working profile.
• Reach into operative areas where an 11" instrument provides useful working length.
• Use the curved blade shape when a shaped approach is helpful for accessing and separating tissue planes.
