Mayo-Noble Gynecological Scissors

Mayo-Noble scissors are dissecting scissors that many gynecologic surgeons use. Choose a 15 or 18 cm length, with straight or curved blades, to fit your trays.

Dissecting scissors

Dissecting scissors separate tissue layers as well as cut them. So the pair can open planes before the surgeon divides tissue. Also, it handles fascia and tougher connective tissue found in pelvic and abdominal cases.

15 or 18 cm

The 15 cm pair suits work near the surface. Meanwhile, the 18 cm pair, about 17 cm measured, adds reach into the pelvis. Therefore both sizes find a place on gynecology trays in many hospitals.

Straight or curved

Straight blades cut cleanly along a line. By contrast, curved blades follow planes and keep the tips visible. Then choose by the step you most often perform with this pair.

Mayo-Noble in practice

Many surgeons reach for a curved pair to dissect and a straight pair to cut sutures. However, your team may prefer one shape for both. So order Mayo-Noble scissors to match that habit.

Cleaning Mayo-Noble scissors

Keep suture-cutting pairs apart from dissecting pairs, since cutting suture dulls a fine edge over time. First, rinse the blades and pivot under running water right after the case. Next, dry the pair and check it cuts cleanly along the full blade.
