  • Surgical cutting tool
    Patent number: 5833703
    Abstract: A surgical cutting tool, such as a pair of scissors, is provided suction means which allows suction to be applied to the site of operation. In the case of scissors, the closure of the blades is used to reduce the opening of a recess formed alone one of the inboard edges of the blades, and to effectively move the opening through which suction is applied, along the blade so as to constantly juxtapose the point of cutting. Electrodes can be connected to the blades to permit the tool to also act as a cautery.
