Neurosurgical scissors

Neurosurgical scissors are a surgical instrument designed for cutting soft tissues and blood vessels during neurosurgical operations. They have short cutting parts and long jaws, which allow operations to be carried out at the depth of the surgical wound.

During neurosurgery, neurosurgical scissors are used to cut hard and soft tissues such as skin, muscles, ligaments and blood vessels. They can also be used to create access to damaged areas of the brain or other internal organs.

One of the main advantages of neurosurgical scissors is their accuracy and safety. They allow the surgeon to perform operations with minimal damage to surrounding tissue. In addition, they have sharp blades that cut tissue easily, reducing surgery time and reducing the risk of complications.

Before using neurosurgical scissors, the surgeon must ensure that they are properly adjusted and ready for use. This includes checking the blades for sharpness and checking the length of the jaws.

Thus, neurosurgical scissors are an important tool for neurosurgical operations and ensure safety and precision during surgery.

A type of surgical instrument used by neurosurgeons to cut certain tissues during operations on the patient’s brain or spinal cord. Neurosurgery is a branch of practical medicine that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of pathological conditions of the central nervous system. It is also used by doctors of other specialties when it is necessary to gain access to the cavities of the skull and spinal cord. An important feature is the need to expand surgical access when performing neurosurgical operations.

By design, there are tools with a straight blade - working scissors and scissors curved on the side. Of all the latest designs, the working tool is the most convenient to use; it has two cutting blades bent outward at the base. Typically used with a short handle and sharp, straight ends. There are also special scissors for dividing the dura mater. They are distinguished by their T-shape and thin blade edges.
