Fomon Surgical Scissors Straight 14.5 cm (5.7)

Controlled Cutting and Practical Access for General Surgery

Fomon dorsal scissors are 5 3/4-inch surgical scissors designed for general surgery cutting tasks. Their angled shanks support access and instrument positioning where a straight-line approach may be less convenient, while the straight Superior-Cut blades provide a familiar cutting format. A micro-serrated lower blade can help maintain material contact during controlled handling, and blunt tips support cautious instrument use around adjacent structures. The frosted ring handle provides a defined grasping surface for routine manipulation. Together, these features offer a compact, task-focused instrument for surgical workflows requiring precision-oriented handling and clear control.

Use Cases

• Cutting tasks in general surgery where a 5 3/4-inch scissors format is appropriate.
• Approaching work areas with the angled-shank configuration when direct alignment is less convenient.
• Using the straight Superior-Cut blades for routine surgical cutting applications.
• Handling materials with the micro-serrated lower blade when added contact during manipulation is useful.
• Performing controlled cutting with blunt-tipped ends in workflows where tip configuration is an important consideration.
