Product Overview
The Littler Suture Carrying Scissor is a unique “multifunctional” tool designed specifically for procedures requiring the frequent passing of sutures through small anatomical spaces or tunnels. Its most distinguishing feature is a small eyelet (hole) precision-drilled into the distal end of the blade. This allows the surgeon to thread a suture through the scissor tip, effectively turning the scissors into a needle driver or suture carrier for deep-seated or narrow operative sites.
Key Features
-
“Beast-Eye” Integrated Eyelet: The small hole at the tip of the blade allows for the secure transport of suture material. This is essential for “hook-and-pull” techniques where a suture needs to be guided behind a vessel or through a narrow tunnel during flap elevation.
-
Curved Dissecting Blades: The blades feature a gentle curvature and semi-sharp tips, allowing them to perform fine blunt dissection of delicate tissues and nerves before the suture is passed.
-
High-Tactile Balance: Forged with slender shanks and ergonomic finger rings to provide the surgeon with maximum sensitivity. This ensures that the instrument remains responsive even when working under a surgical microscope.
-
Precision Pivot Screw: The joint is meticulously tensioned to ensure that the blades open and close with a smooth, snag-free motion, preventing the suture material from fraying or getting caught in the hinge.
-
Surgical-Grade Stainless Steel: Manufactured from premium tempered steel to maintain a razor-sharp edge and ensure the eyelet remains smooth and free of microscopic burrs.
