Tenotomy Surgical Scissors Curved 14.0 cm (5.5)

Controlled Access for Fine Dissection and Tissue Handling

Westcott tenotomy scissors are designed for precise cutting and dissection in delicate surgical work, with a 5 5/8" overall size and 23.0mm curved right blades. Blunt tips support controlled handling where a less pointed profile is preferred, while the wide flat handle provides a practical grip for repeated opening and closing during focused tasks. Their compact form can support access in confined operative fields without adding unnecessary instrument length. This configuration fits general surgery workflows and can also serve ophthalmic and plastic surgery applications that call for fine scissor work, careful tissue handling, and consistent instrument control.

Use Cases

• Perform fine cutting and dissection tasks in general surgery using the curved right blade profile for directed access.
• Support ophthalmic workflows requiring compact tenotomy scissors for controlled work in a focused operative field.
• Use during plastic surgery procedures where blunt-tipped scissors and a wide flat handle support deliberate tissue handling.
• Apply the 23.0mm blades to tasks that benefit from a shorter cutting area and close instrument control.
• Use the 5 5/8" scissors for routine fine-scissor handling across approved surgical specialties.
