BREAST DISSECTOR

Breast dissectors are surgical instruments used in breast surgery to create a pocket for breast implants or to dissect and remove breast tissue. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes, each designed to perform specific tasks during the surgical procedure.

Some common types of breast dissectors include:

Cobb elevator: This is a blunt-tipped dissector used to create a pocket for breast implants. It is also used to lift and separate tissue during breast reduction surgeries.

Kerrison rongeur: This is a sharp-tipped instrument used to remove bone and cartilage during breast surgeries, such as breast reduction or breast reconstruction.

Bovie electrocautery: This is an instrument that uses high-frequency electrical current to cut and coagulate tissue during breast surgeries.

Metzenbaum scissors: These are curved scissors used to dissect and trim soft tissue during breast surgeries, such as lumpectomy or breast reduction.

Breast dissectors are typically made from high-quality stainless steel or titanium, which are durable and easy to sterilize. They are also designed to provide a comfortable and secure grip, allowing the surgeon to perform the procedure with precision and ease.

Overall, breast dissectors are essential tools in breast surgery, helping surgeons to perform complex procedures with care and precision, and achieve optimal outcomes for their patients.
