Metzenbaum Surgical Scissors Straight 14.5 cm (5.7) TC (Gold Handle)

Controlled Dissection Across Surgical Workflows

Metzenbaum dissecting scissors are intended for controlled dissection and tissue handling, providing a purpose-built option for separating and trimming tissue rather than general cutting tasks. At 5 3/4 inches, this straight-pattern instrument offers a practical balance of working reach and maneuverability where access and visual control matter. Its dissecting format supports familiar handling across cardiovascular, general, orthopedic, and plastic surgery workflows, making it a versatile addition to specialty-neutral instrument sets. Use the scissors according to facility technique and applicable instructions, with inspection and reprocessing practices aligned with local protocols.

Use Cases

• Support controlled dissection tasks in cardiovascular procedures where a compact 5 3/4-inch scissors format is useful.
• Perform routine tissue dissection and handling during general surgery workflows.
• Provide a dedicated dissecting scissors option for orthopedic surgical tasks requiring instrument control.
• Support tissue dissection and handling in plastic surgery procedures where maneuverability and visual access are important.
