Littauer Ligature Scissors, 135 mm
Part No.: MS-BC-235
Manufacturer: Manning Surgical
Country of Origin: United Kingdom
The Littauer Ligature Scissors (135 mm) are specialized, high-precision surgical instruments engineered specifically for the safe isolation and seamless removal of sutures across superficial and deep anatomical planes. Designed with a distinct hooked tip on the lower blade, these scissors safely slide underneath tightly bound ligatures, isolating the thread and protecting the underlying tissue from inadvertent piercing or trauma. The robust, thickened blade architecture ensures optimal mechanical force transmission, allowing the precision-beveled edges to sever tough suture materials instantly. Combining a highly controlled short-blade-to-shank ratio with a streamlined, lightweight design, the Littauer Ligature Scissors offer clinicians exceptional tactile control and reliability during post-operative suture removal.
Features:
- Specialized Hooked Tip: The lower blade features a precise hook that smoothly slides beneath and engages the suture, lifting it safely away from the skin or soft tissue prior to cutting.
- Heavy-Duty Blade Architecture: The sturdy, thick-built blades maximize mechanical leverage and force transmission, enabling effortless and immediate dissection of dense suture materials.
- Beveled Cutting Edges: Precision-ground edges provide clean, sharp shearing forces to effectively cut ligatures in both easily accessible and deep-seated surgical sites.
- Optimized Blade-to-Shank Ratio: The short cutting blades relative to the longer shanks grant the operator superior mechanical control, increasing the overall precision of the dissection.
- Atraumatic Outer Profile: Smooth, rounded outer surfaces and edges allow the instrument to glide safely between tissues and structures without causing friction or unintended micro-trauma.
- 135 mm Ergonomic Design: The balanced 135 mm length, paired with ergonomic finger rings and a lightweight build, significantly reduces hand fatigue during repetitive clinical tasks.
- Premium Surgical Stainless Steel: Forged from high-quality stainless steel with a glare-reducing satin finish, ensuring exceptional corrosion resistance, longevity, and full compatibility with repeated sterilization cycles.
