Description

Metzenbaum-Lahey Scissors With Tungsten Carbide

Metzenbaum-Lahey scissors are a short, fine dissecting pattern. This 14 cm curved pair has tungsten carbide inserts.

A short Metzenbaum

At 14 cm, the pair keeps your fingers near the incision. So the scissors suit superficial dissection.

Curved blades

The curve follows tissue planes. Also, the tips stay visible.

Carbide inserts

The inserts hold their edge for longer. Therefore the pair stays sharp through more cases.

On a set

Teams often pair the Metzenbaum-Lahey with longer Metzenbaum scissors. Then the short pair handles the surface steps. Because both share a blade shape, the feel stays familiar. In addition, the curved blades keep the tips visible during dissection. So the pair suits shallow and moderate fields. If you use longer Metzenbaum pairs already, add this short pair for the surface steps. Then the whole set shares one blade shape. As a result, the team works with less adjustment.

Reprocessing Metzenbaum-Lahey scissors

Clean the blades gently after use. Next, rinse and dry fully. Then keep the pair closed, because carbide chips when knocked.
