Tenotomy scissors
Tenotomy scissors are surgical scissors used to perform delicate surgery. They can be straight or curved, and blunt or sharp, depending upon necessity. Surgical instrument manufacturers like Hayden Medical supply tenotomy scissors with Stainless Steel, SuperCut or Tungsten Carbide blades. Super Cut Steven's Tenotomy Scissors are most commonly used in Plastic Surgery to cut and dissect delicate tissue. These scissors can also be used in many other surgical specialties, in particular delicate operations in ophthalmic surgery, oral and maxillofacial surgery, or in neurosurgery.
