Klinkenbergh-Loth Neurosurgical Scissors

Description

Klinkenbergh-Loth Neurosurgical Scissors

Klinkenbergh-Loth scissors are long neurosurgical scissors for cutting dura and soft tissue in deep fields. Surgeons use them where standard operating scissors would fall short.

Reach first

Neurosurgery often puts the cutting point far below the skin. So the length of a scissor matters as much as its blades. At 23 cm, this pattern keeps the hand outside the wound while the tips reach the target.

One size

We offer the Klinkenbergh-Loth scissors in a single 23 cm length. They also appear in our scissors range. For blade shape or tip details, please contact us before you order, and we can share photos.

Typical cuts

Surgeons commonly open the dura with long, fine scissors after the first nick. For instance, they may extend a dural opening along a planned line. Also, these scissors can divide bands of tissue deep in a spinal exposure.

How they fit with other scissors

Most neurosurgery sets hold several scissor patterns with different lengths and tips. Therefore, look at what your set already covers. If you need extra reach, the 23 cm length fills that role well.

Caring for your Klinkenbergh-Loth scissors

Open the scissors and rinse the blades soon after use. Next, brush around the pivot, where debris hides. Then dry them, lubricate the joint, and sterilize them. Finally, send them for sharpening when they start to fold tissue rather than cut it.

Placing your scissors order

Our three-year warranty applies to these scissors wherever a workmanship defect arises. Before they ship, somebody in our Atlanta office opens, closes and inspects each pair by hand. Our FAQs page for customers deals with delivery and billing. On materials, we refer customers to ASTM F899, which lists steels for surgical instruments.
