Cerkes Caplan Nasal Scissors, Delicate Blades, TC, 20 cm

Overview

The Cerkes Caplan Nasal Scissors, Delicate Blades, TC, 20 cm are designed to support precise tissue dissection and controlled cutting in rhinoplasty and nasal surgical procedures. The delicate, narrow blade profile is intended to facilitate access within confined anatomical spaces where visibility, maneuverability, and refined tissue handling are important.

Featuring a double-action mechanism and tungsten carbide (TC) cutting inserts, this instrument is commonly selected for procedures requiring controlled cutting and detailed tissue management within the nasal framework.

Manufactured from German surgical stainless steel with tungsten carbide inserts, these scissors are designed for durability, corrosion resistance, and repeated sterilization.
