Sklartech 5000 Laparoscopic Operating Scissors are used for dissecting and cutting tissue during laparoscopic procedures. The use of laparoscopic instruments is beneficial to both surgeon and patient because complex procedures may be completed through small incisions rather than traditionally larger ones. Sklartech 5000 Laparoscopic instruments are crafted from the highest grade stainless steel to ensure reliability and durability. Sklar offers laparoscopic instruments in the most widely used patterns, as complete sets or replacement parts only. Each complete set includes a handle, locking collar, insulated shaft, and insert with the tip. Sklartech 5000 replacement parts are interchangeable based on procedure or surgeon preference. Miniature replacement parts are also available. This product is for a complete instrument which is curved with two smooth, blunt tips, and an overall length of 33 centimeters. The handle on this instrument is non-ratcheted.
