The Potts-Smith Vascular Scissors are high-precision surgical scissors specially designed for cardiovascular and thoracic procedures, particularly those involving blood vessel incision and trimming. These scissors are a standard in vascular surgery due to their angled blade design and controlled dissection capabilities.
Available in 25°, 45°, and 60° blade angles, they offer surgeons superior visibility and access in deep or narrow surgical fields. The 7.5-inch length provides a balance between reach and control, making them ideal for delicate procedures like arteriotomy or fascia dissection. The fine, sharp tips (often slightly rounded) allow for precision and safety, reducing the risk of unintentional tissue damage.
Manufactured from premium stainless steel, Potts-Smith scissors are rust-resistant, durable, and autoclavable. Some versions come with SuperCut technology, offering one razor-sharp edge and one micro-serrated edge for optimal cutting performance, especially on tougher tissues or plaque.
The ergonomic ring handles, available in dual black or polished finish, provide a comfortable grip and enhance fine motor control during extended surgeries.
