DEBAKEY Vascular Scissors 16cm 45

Clinical Application

Designed for precise cutting around blood vessels and delicate soft tissues, this 16 cm Debakey vascular scissors with a 45-degree tip is used in vascular, microvascular, cardiothoracic, and general surgical procedures where atraumatic, controlled dissection is required. Its fine blades allow careful trimming of adventitia, precise removal of tissue during vessel preparation, and controlled suture cutting in confined operative fields.

Design & Configuration

The 45-degree angled distal blade provides improved access and line-of-sight in deep or narrow operative pockets, allowing the surgeon to approach vessels obliquely without excessive retraction. The slender profile and fine, atraumatic cutting edges minimize tissue distortion during dissection, supporting delicate maneuvers such as mobilizing vessels and preparing edges for anastomosis. The ergonomic balance of a 16 cm length offers reach for deeper exposures while maintaining tactile control for fine movements.
