Willis John Potts was a paediatric cardiothoracic surgeon at Northwestern who developed the angled scissors for cutting vessels during cardiac surgery — specifically the Blalock-Taussig and Potts shunts in early treatment of cyanotic congenital heart disease. Modern Potts scissors are used wherever angled vascular cuts are needed: vascular anastomosis, aortic surgery, vessel harvesting for coronary bypass, and trauma vascular repair. The defining feature is the angled blade — 25°, 45°, 60°, and 90° angles are all manufactured — letting the surgeon cut a vessel at any required angle without rotating the instrument. Most common in 18–20 cm overall length. Tungsten carbide tips are standard in modern vascular and cardiac sets.

Sialkot has been the world’s primary cluster for surgical-instrument manufacturing since the late nineteenth century, when local steel workshops began supplying instruments to British military and civilian hospitals. Fizza Surgical’s facility continues that tradition, combining workshop craftsmanship with the metallurgy and quality systems modern medical regulation requires. Fizza products are exhibited at international medical-device trade fairs in Europe, the Middle East, and North America.
