An open-surgery dissector is a handheld surgical tool designed to carefully separate soft tissues or anatomical structures during procedures like general or plastic surgery. Its spoon-shaped or rounded tip helps create space without damaging surrounding tissue, making it essential for precise dissection in open operations.
These devices are typically reusable, crafted from high-grade stainless steel, and come in various shapes and sizes to suit different surgical needs. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified based on their intended use and risk level, requiring compliance with surgical instrument standards.
