Mayo Operating Scissors — Curved, 25 cm (25.0 cm)

Reference SC 02-66-07: Mayo Operating Scissors — Curved, 25 cm (25.0 cm). The curved jaw improves visibility around tissue edges and around the surgeon’s hand — the standard configuration for most dissection and clamping tasks.

The Mayo brothers — William James and Charles Horace — founded what became the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, and lent their family name to a remarkable number of surgical instruments. Mayo scissors, the most common of the family, are heavy curved or straight dissecting scissors with thick blades for cutting fascia, suture, and tough tissue. The 14 cm and 17 cm lengths are most used. Mayo’s design philosophy emphasized robustness over delicacy: these are workhorses meant to outlast decades of autoclave cycles in a busy operating theatre. Curved Mayo scissors handle blunt and sharp dissection through fascial planes; straight Mayos are preferred for cutting suture and prepared tissue.
