Sklar Edge Supercut TC Metzenbaum-Nelson Bariatric
An extra long curved tungsten carbide Metzenbaum-Nelson scissors built for tissue dissection in bariatric surgery, available in nine, ten and eleven inch lengths.
The Sklar Edge Sklarhone Super-Cut Metzenbaum-Nelson Bariatric Dissecting Scissors is a longer version of the Metzenbaum dissecting pattern, built for the extra reach that bariatric and other deep abdominal surgery can require, where a standard length scissors may not comfortably reach the tissue plane being worked on.
Its tungsten carbide cutting edges hold a sharp line through repeated use, an important quality for an instrument that will see extended procedures and correspondingly heavy use over its service life. This listing covers three length variants, at nine, ten and eleven inches, all curved with blunt tips, letting a surgical team choose the reach appropriate to a patient's body habitus and the depth of the surgical field.
Instruments of this kind are used by bariatric and general surgeons and their assistants during gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy and other procedures involving larger patients or deeper access. As a tungsten carbide instrument, it requires appropriately careful handling and reprocessing while remaining built for repeated sterilisation and continued surgical use.
