POTTS-De Martel Scissors angle to side 24cm

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled, angled incisions in vascular tissues, this Potts‑De Martel pattern scissors is used to extend arteriotomies and perform precise longitudinal or oblique cuts along vessels. The side‑angled tip facilitates access to vessel walls without excessive manipulation of the vessel or surrounding tissues, making it suitable for peripheral vascular, cardiothoracic, and other procedures where a controlled, directional cut is required.

Design & Configuration

The side‑angled configuration orients the cutting blades away from the surgeon’s hand, improving visibility and ergonomics when working along the long axis of a vessel. The 24 cm overall length provides additional reach for deeper operative fields, allowing the shaft to bridge retractors or surrounding anatomy while maintaining tip control. The angled tip reduces the need to rotate the instrument or the surgical field to achieve an appropriate cutting trajectory, helping preserve delicate tissues and minimize inadvertent trauma.
