Delicate Curved Dissection with Controlled Handling

Metzenbaum-Lipsett dissecting scissors are designed for delicate tissue dissection and trimming, combining a curved profile with flattened blades, a micro-serrated lower blade, blunt tips, and a ring handle. The 5 1/2" format supports controlled manipulation in focused operative fields, while the delicate weight class promotes measured handling during detailed work. Suitable for cardiovascular, general surgery, and plastic surgery workflows, this instrument can help clinicians approach tissue planes with a practical balance of access, visibility, and control. Its configuration supports routine dissection tasks where precise scissor handling is preferred over heavier cutting instrumentation.

Use Cases

• Delicate tissue dissection in cardiovascular surgical workflows where a curved profile can support access around localized operative structures.
• General surgery dissection and trimming tasks requiring controlled handling from a 5 1/2" instrument.
• Plastic surgery procedures involving detailed tissue preparation and contour-sensitive dissection work.
• Use the blunt tips for scissor handling in workflows where a less pointed instrument profile is preferred.
• The ring handle supports familiar scissor manipulation during repeated, focused dissection tasks.

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess according to facility protocols and the applicable instrument-care instructions.
• Inspect the curved blades, micro-serrated lower blade, blunt tips, and ring handle for visible residue, damage, or impaired movement before use.
• Handle the blades carefully during cleaning, transport, and storage to help preserve their working edges and alignment.
• Store the scissors in a protected arrangement that prevents contact damage to the blades and tips.
