Caplan Surgical Scissors Straight 16.5 cm (6.5)

Controlled Access for Nasal Septum Work

Caplan nasal septum scissors are designed for cutting and dissecting during nasal septum procedures, giving general surgery teams a purpose-built instrument for work in a confined operative area. The 6 1/2-inch length supports useful reach, while the angled shanks can help position the straight blades toward the intended site without forcing the hand into the line of access. Double-action construction and a spring handle support controlled opening and closing during repeated use. Blunt tips provide a less pointed blade profile for handling around delicate structures. Together, these features offer practical control and a familiar scissor format for septal tissue work.

Use Cases

• Cutting and dissecting nasal septal tissue during septum-focused procedures.
• Using the angled shanks to approach the operative site while maintaining a practical hand position.
• Applying the straight blades to controlled scissor work in a confined nasal operative field.
• Using the spring handle for repeated opening and closing during instrument-assisted dissection.
• Selecting blunt-tipped scissors when a less pointed tip profile is appropriate for the task.

Care & Handling

• Clean the scissors promptly after use according to facility protocols and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the straight blades, blunt tips, angled shanks, spring handle, and double-action mechanism for residue, damage, or impaired movement before reuse.
• Handle the instrument carefully to help protect blade alignment and the tip profile during cleaning, transport, and setup.
• Store the scissors in a manner that protects the blades and prevents contact damage with other instruments.
