Mayo Stille Scissors str 17cm

Clinical Application

Designed for open surgical procedures where controlled cutting of dense tissue is required. Commonly used in general surgery, gynecology, orthopedics and other specialties for dividing fascia, blunt-sharp dissection of muscle and dense connective tissue, and for cutting sutures during closure. The straight blade orientation is ideal when working along the axis of an incision or when precise, linear cuts are needed close to the wound edge.

Design & Configuration

The straight, Mayo-style blade geometry provides a robust cutting profile that transfers applied force efficiently for reliable performance on tougher tissues. The 17 cm length balances surgical reach with fine hand control, allowing the surgeon to work both in superficial planes and deeper portions of an open field without sacrificing dexterity. Straight blades also permit accurate approximation of tissue planes and controlled suture trimming during closure.
