Operating Scissors Archives

Operating Scissors are a fundamental category of surgical cutting instruments found in every operating room. They come in various designs—most commonly straight or curved blades with sharp or blunt tips—to serve different purposes. Straight, sharp scissors (like Mayo scissors) are used for cutting sutures and dense tissues, while curved, blunt-tipped scissors (like Metzenbaum) are for delicate dissection. They are essential for cutting sutures, dressings, and tissue during virtually all surgical procedures, making them one of the most basic yet indispensable tools in surgery.
