POTTS-SMITH 19 cm 60° scissors: precision for vascular surgery
POTTS-SMITH 19 cm scissors, manufactured by Frimed, are high-quality dissection and cutting instruments, primarily intended for vascular surgery. Their length of 19 cm, combined with a blade angle of 60°, allows optimal access to deep-lying vessels and tissues, particularly during complex thoracic or cardiovascular procedures. This model is particularly appreciated for its ability to offer excellent control while maintaining a clear field of vision. The angled shape of the blades is not just an aesthetic detail: it is a practical response to the requirements of precision and safety when cutting thin or fragile vascular walls.
The choice of material – high-quality surgical stainless steel – gives the instrument exceptional resistance to corrosion, deformation and repeated mechanical stress. This not only guarantees a longer service life, but also consistent reliability during use. Each pair of scissors is designed to deliver a clean cut without burrs or excessive effort, thereby reducing the risk of tissue trauma.
The design of the handles, with ergonomic rings, ensures optimal comfort even during prolonged use. The transmission of force is smooth and precise, making these scissors the tool of choice for specialist surgeons who want to combine technical performance with surgical precision.
This specific POTTS-SMITH model also stands out from other models in the range thanks to its 60° configuration, which makes it particularly useful for reaching narrow or curved anatomical areas where straight or lower angle (25° or 45°) models would be limited. It is this design detail, which should not be overlooked, that gives this model its real added value.
