Cardiovascular Micro Scissors: Potts-Smith, Diethrich and DeBakey Patterns
Vascular work needs fine scissors that cut cleanly in a small, deep field. This collection brings together 25 micro scissors for arteriotomy, coronary and vascular dissection, priced from $4.95 to $46.20. Every instrument ships from Sialkot with worldwide delivery, and your page states that the range is CE marked and made under ISO 13485.
Potts-Smith Patterns
Potts-Smith scissors are the classic pattern for extending an arteriotomy. The Potts Smith Scissors Multiple Sizes start from $15.40 and give you several sizes to suit different vessels. The Potts Smith Reverse Scissors invert the cutting direction, at $22.00. The Super Cut Potts Smith Scissors are priced at $19.80. We also list the Potts Smith Scissors at $13.20, the Potts Type Artery Scissors at $13.20 and an 18cm version at $17.38 for deeper fields, which is currently sold out.
Coronary and Vascular Patterns
Coronary work uses finer, angled blades. The Diethrich Coronary Artery Scissors are priced at $18.70, and the Diethrich Artery Scissors at the same price suit general arterial work. The Favaloro Curved Shank Coronary Scissors at $14.85 are made for reaching around the heart, but are currently sold out. For heavier vascular work, the DeBakey Vascular Scissors are $16.50, and the DeBakey Potts Scissors are $18.48.
Titanium Micro Scissors
Titanium is lighter than steel and non-magnetic, which helps in long microscope cases and in MRI-adjacent settings. The Micro Surgery Titanium Scissors 16cm Curved start from $46.20, and the straight 16cm version from $44.00. Steel remains a practical choice for departments that reprocess instruments daily.
Tenotomy and Fine Scissors
The Potts Reynolds Tenotomy Scissors start from just $4.95 for fine dissection, and the Potts Tenotomy Scissors are $7.48, but are sold out at the moment. The Micro Surgery Scissors Without Lock at $33.00 suit surgeons who prefer continuous control over a locked position.
Choosing the Right Scissors
Think about where the blade sits relative to your hand. Angled blades keep the hand out of the sightline, longer shanks reach deeper fields and curved shanks help around the heart. Check each product page for sizes and options.
Care and Handling
Fine blades chip easily, so use tip protectors in mixed trays. Ultrasonic cleaning before autoclaving clears debris from the box lock and keeps the joint smooth. For heavier cutting, see our cardiovascular scissors.
