Sklarcut Metzenbaum Nelson Bariatric Scissors, 9 Inch

The Sklarcut Metzenbaum Nelson Bariatric Dissecting Scissors are a 9 inch curved instrument with blunt/blunt tips and a micro-serrated edge, extended in length to give surgeons the reach needed when operating on patients with a larger body habitus. Bariatric surgery and other procedures involving a deeper or thicker surgical field require longer instruments than standard general surgery sets provide, and this scissors follows the familiar Metzenbaum family design, gentle blunt tips for delicate tissue dissection, paired with a micro-serrated edge for a secure hold on fascia and connective tissue, but built onto a longer 9 inch shaft for that extra working depth.

The curved blade profile suits dissection around structures that are not directly in line with the incision, which is common in deeper abdominal work. Manufactured by Sklar under the Sklarcut range, the blades are sharpened for controlled cutting and should be handled carefully to preserve the edge, then cleaned and sterilised between cases.

Bariatric and general surgery units across the UAE and GCC performing procedures on larger patients keep this extended scissors within their dissecting instrument sets.
