Angled Potts-Smith Scissors for Controlled Surgical Access

Potts-Smith scissors are designed for precise cutting and dissection where an angled profile can help position the blades within the operative field. This 7-inch instrument features 45º angled tungsten-carbide blades, a micro-serrated lower blade, sharp tips, and a ring handle for familiar manual control. The configuration supports practical handling when access, visibility, and directional cutting matter in cardiovascular, general surgery, and plastic surgery workflows. Its extended length can provide useful reach while the angled blade shape helps align the cutting edge with the intended line of work. Use according to facility protocols and the specific requirements of the procedure.

Use Cases

• Support controlled cutting and dissection tasks in cardiovascular surgical workflows where an angled blade orientation is useful.
• Use for general surgery procedures requiring a Potts-Smith scissors profile and extended 7-inch reach.
• Assist plastic surgery workflows involving precise cutting in areas where blade direction and operative-field access are important.
• Use the ring handle for conventional finger placement and manual instrument control during appropriate cutting tasks.
• Apply the micro-serrated lower blade and sharp tips for tasks suited to the named blade configuration, following professional technique and facility protocols.
