METZENBAUM Dissection Scissors Curved – 160 mm, blunt tips

METZENBAUM CURVED SCISSORS - 160 mm

The METZENBAUM curved dissecting scissors 160 mm are surgical instruments specifically designed for the delicate dissection of soft tissues.

The curvature of the blades facilitates access to deep anatomical planes and improves visibility of the surgical field, while the blunt/blunt tips reduce the risk of accidental trauma during tissue manipulation. The length of 160 mm (6 1/4") ensures greater reach and precision in procedures requiring operational depth.
