Olivecrona Tonsil Scissors — Precision Tonsillar Pillar Dissection

The Olivecrona Tonsil Scissors are specialized ENT instruments designed for precise dissection of tonsillar pillars and peritonsillar tissue during tonsillectomy procedures. Named after Herbert Olivecrona (1891–1980), the legendary Swedish neurosurgeon often called the “father of Swedish neurosurgery,” this tonsil scissors pattern reflects his influence on surgical instrument design. The scissors feature slightly angled blades with blunt/blunt tips that safely separate tonsillar tissue from the pharyngeal musculature without perforating underlying vessels.

Forged from AISI 420 martensitic German-grade Stainless Steel, the blades are approximately 30–35mm in length with a gentle curve that follows the tonsillar fossa anatomy. Overall length is typically 18cm (7 inches), providing adequate reach into the oropharynx. The box-lock joint ensures precise blade alignment under the lateral forces encountered during tough tissue dissection, while the serrated inner blade edges provide non-slip cutting action on fibrous tonsillar adhesions.
