Controlled Access for Fine Surgical Dissection

Potts-Reynolds tenotomy scissors are surgical scissors designed for controlled cutting and fine tissue dissection where deliberate handling and access matter. This 6-inch instrument combines a curved blade profile with the established tenotomy scissor format, supporting a useful balance of reach and working-field access. Its configuration suits focused tasks in cardiovascular, general, and plastic surgery workflows without limiting use to a single specialty. The ring-handle design supports familiar manual operation, while the instrument’s length can help maintain working distance when approaching precise operative sites. Use it as part of a technique-appropriate instrument set and facility-defined workflow.

Use Cases

• Perform focused cutting and fine dissection tasks associated with tenotomy scissors.
• Use the curved profile when the working approach benefits from an angled blade path and improved access around nearby structures.
• Support cardiovascular surgery workflows requiring a dedicated scissors format for controlled operative handling.
• Include in general surgery instrument sets for precise dissection tasks suited to the Potts-Reynolds pattern.
• Use in plastic surgery workflows where a compact, curved scissors format supports deliberate tissue work.

Specifications

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the scissors according to facility protocols and the applicable manufacturer instructions.
• Inspect the curved blades, cutting edges, pivot, and ring handles before and after use for damage, residue, or impaired movement.
• Handle the blades carefully during transport, cleaning, and setup to help protect the cutting surfaces and maintain safe instrument control.
• Store in a manner that prevents contact damage to the blades and keeps the instrument ready for inspection and use.

General use; follow facility protocols.
