Controlled Angled Cutting for Detailed Surgical Work

Potts-Smith scissors are surgical scissors intended for controlled cutting in detailed operative work. This 7-inch instrument combines a delicate profile with 25º angled blades, sharp tips, and a ring handle to support precise positioning, access, and hand control. The angled configuration can help maintain a practical working relationship between the hand and the operative field, while the sharp tips support focused scissor placement. Its design is suitable for varied workflows across cardiovascular, general, and plastic surgery, where deliberate handling and clear instrument orientation are important during fine cutting tasks.

Use Cases

• Cardiovascular procedures requiring a delicate, angled scissor profile for controlled cutting in confined operative areas.
• General surgery workflows involving precise cutting tasks where sharp tips and a 25º blade angle support deliberate instrument placement.
• Plastic surgery applications involving detailed tissue or material cutting tasks that benefit from a delicate scissor design and ring-handle control.
• Operative settings where the 7-inch length provides useful reach while preserving familiar scissor handling.
