Clinical Application
Curved 21 cm Mayo-Stille scissors are designed for cutting and sharp/blunt dissection of relatively dense soft tissues such as fascia and muscle. The curved blade profile provides controlled cutting along tissue planes and improved access in medium-to-deep operative fields, making this pattern commonly used in general surgery, orthopedics, gynecology and other procedures where precise, durable tissue division is required.
Design & Configuration
The curved geometry directs blade tips away from the surgeon’s hand and toward the tissue plane, improving visibility in confined or deep wounds and reducing the need for extensive retraction. At 21 cm, the instrument provides a balance between reach and tactile control for both superficial and deeper dissections. Ring handles and conventional scissor action deliver familiar ergonomics for controlled cutting force and finger control during repeated use.
