Metzenbaum Nelson Scissors sh/bl str 20cm

Clinical Application

Designed for precise dissection of delicate soft tissue, this Metzenbaum Nelson pattern is used to separate tissue planes with minimal trauma. The straight orientation and blunt tips make it well suited for superficial and moderately deep dissections where controlled, atraumatic cutting is required—common in general surgery, plastics, ENT, and gynecology. The 20 cm overall length provides reach into cavities while preserving fine tip control for delicate maneuvers.

Design & Configuration

The Metzenbaum geometry pairs a relatively long shank with short, blunt blades to concentrate cutting action at the tip while keeping most of the working length clear of the surgical field. Straight blades give predictable, line-of-sight control for sharp dissection and trimming. Blunt tips reduce the risk of inadvertent puncture or damage to adjacent structures, making the instrument appropriate for both blunt and fine sharp dissection.
