?:definition
  • Middle-ear surgery scissors designed to dissect tissue during endaural microsurgical procedures. These scissors are typically very small handheld, manual instruments with two long and very fine metallic (e.g., stainless steel) blades with straight or angled sharp tips that slide past each other (i.e., shearing action). The blades are attached through long shanks to handles with the proximal end conformed as a ring to facilitate holding and operating with the fingers. Both parts are joined by a swivel pin in the center. Middle-ear surgery scissors are used to cut soft tissue in microsurgical procedures of the structures of the middle ear such as stapes and tympanic membrane surgery (i.e., tympanoplasty).
