Metzenbaum Nelson Scissors str 23cm

Clinical Application

Designed for precise soft-tissue dissection and cutting, this straight Metzenbaum Nelson instrument is intended for use where delicate handling and controlled separation of tissue planes are required. It is commonly used in general, plastic/reconstructive, and other soft-tissue procedures for tasks such as development of tissue planes, trimming of subcutaneous tissue, and fine cutting during wound closure.

Design & Configuration

The straight configuration provides a direct line of sight and cutting axis, allowing surgeons to make controlled, accurate incisions and blunt spreads in superficial and deeper operative fields. The design emphasizes a long shank with relatively fine blades to increase reach and tactile control while minimizing crush or collateral tissue trauma. Smooth pivot action facilitates consistent tip alignment and predictable performance during delicate maneuvers.
