Reynolds Operating and Dissecting Scissors S/S Cvd.

Curved operating and dissecting scissors manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel, featuring sharp tenotomy-style tips and a dual-edge cutting design for controlled tissue separation in curved anatomical planes.

Key Features:
• Available in 15 cm and 18 cm lengths for varied surgical reach
• Curved blade profile follows natural tissue planes in deep dissection
• Sharp/sharp tenotomy-style tips for precise tissue entry and cutting
• Micro-serrated lower blade improves grip on soft tissue during cutting
• Fully honed upper blade ensures clean, continuous incision lines
• Designed for deep pocket and curved anatomical access work
• Balanced ring handles with screw-pivot articulation for smooth control
• Satin-finished stainless steel reduces glare in operative fields

The Reynolds Operating and Dissecting Scissors S/S Cvd. features a curved blade profile with tenotomy-type tips, both ends are finely pointed with a sharp-sharp (S/S) configuration. The upper blade carries a fully honed cutting edge, while the lower blade runs a micro-serrated face to grip tissue and prevent slippage during the cutting stroke. Total length options are 15 cm and 18 cm. The instrument body is surgical-grade stainless steel with a satin finish, open ring handles, and a screw-pivot joint that maintains consistent blade registration through repeated autoclaving.

The blade curvature follows a gentle arc from shank to tip, positioning the cutting edge below the hand plane during dissection. This geometry specifically addresses the need to work inside deep tissue pockets without the ring handles obstructing the surgeon’s line of sight. (Reynolds) Dissecting Scissors in the curved configuration consistently outperform straight-blade variants when separating tissues along anatomical curves, as the blade arc naturally follows the tissue plane rather than cutting across it.

ENT surgeons use the Reynolds Operating and Dissecting Scissors S/S Cvd. during functional endoscopic sinus surgery to dissect mucosal flaps from the lateral nasal wall and trim polypoid tissue around the middle turbinate. The 15 cm size suits anterior nasal work, while the 18 cm variant gives reach for posterior ethmoid dissection. Plastic surgeons also apply it during rhytidectomy to undermine subcutaneous tissue layers along curved facial planes.

Leader Surgical delivers verified blade geometry, consistent serration depth, and stable pivot tension across both size variants in this line. The reynolds scissors curved pattern from this brand meets the dimensional standards surgical trays in ENT and plastic surgery suites depend on.

What does “S/S Cvd” stand for?
It stands for Sharp/Sharp Curved. This means both tips of the scissors are pointed (sharp) rather than rounded, and the blades have a slight curvature for better visibility in deep tissue.
