Dean Scissors TC 17cm Curved
17 cm angled Dean scissors with tungsten carbide inserts, designed for blunt dissection and controlled tissue cutting in tonsillar and oropharyngeal procedures.
Key Features:
• 17 cm overall length for extended reach into the oral and pharyngeal cavity
• Angled 30 mm working blades improve access to posterior surgical sites
• Blunt/blunt rounded tips help minimize unintended tissue puncture
• Serrated blade surfaces enhance tissue control during dissection and cutting
• Tungsten carbide (TC) inserts provide prolonged sharpness and wear resistance
• Long shank design keeps the operator’s hand clear of the operative field
• Gold-colored finger rings allow rapid identification of TC instrumentation
• Suitable for tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy, soft-tissue dissection, and suture cutting procedures
Dean Scissors TC 17cm Curved
The Dean Scissors TC 17cm Curved measures 17 cm in total length with a long straight shank terminating in a sharply angled blade section of approximately 30 mm, the upward-angled working end positions the cutting jaws at the back of the oral cavity while keeping the handle and hand clear of the patient’s mouth. Both blade tips are blunt-rounded, and the blades carry serrations along the cutting face. Tungsten carbide inserts reinforce both cutting edges for extended sharpness retention across repeated sterilization cycles. Gold-colored finger rings identify TC fitting on the ENT instrument tray.
The blunt tip pairing combined with the sharply angled blade section makes this instrument suited for blunt dissection in confined posterior oral spaces, the blunt tips push through soft tissue planes without inadvertent puncture of the pharyngeal wall or adjacent vascular structures. Dean Tonsil Scissors TC 17cm Curved instruments cut mucous membranes, muscle tissues, blood vessels, fibrous tissue, and sutures within the oropharyngeal cavity.
Dean Scissors Tonsil 17cm Curved instruments are used for blunt dissection and cutting of soft tissues during ENT procedures and to grasp and remove masses from the oral cavity. ENT surgeons use the Dean Scissors TC 17cm Curved as the primary dissecting instrument during cold-steel tonsillectomy to separate the tonsil from its peritonsillar bed, the angled blade accesses the superior and inferior tonsillar poles where straight scissors cannot reach safely. Otolaryngologists also select this instrument during adenoidectomy for nasopharyngeal soft tissue removal and during oropharyngeal tumor debulking procedures.
Behind every ENT instrument tray that runs without interruption is a manufacturer who understands surgical access geometry, Leader Surgical builds the Dean scissors to the exact angulation and TC specification that otolaryngologists depend on when working in the deepest part of the pharyngeal cavity.
How do I identify TC Dean Scissors?
Surgical instruments with Tungsten Carbide inserts are standardly identified by gold-plated handles.
