Mayo Stille Scissor, 16 cm Curved

HK Medical Instruments Mayo-Stille Scissor in the 16 cm curved pattern carries the distinctive offset-shank geometry that sets the Stille category apart from a standard Mayo. The angled shanks increase the mechanical advantage transferred to the blades, giving the veterinarian strong, decisive cutting action on fascia, fibrous tissue and tough suture material without excessive hand effort.

Product code 2205416 pairs that leverage with curved blunt/blunt blades, so the tips stay visible while working around dense tissue at a practical 16 cm working length. Because the pattern is deliberately heavy, keep it assigned to robust cutting tasks rather than delicate dissection, and protect the blades from wire or other materials outside its intended use. Inspect shank alignment and blade closure during routine instrument checks and process the scissor under the validated sterilization protocol.
