The authors present a novel bipolar-coagulation microscissors exclusively designed
for microsurgical use which can be applied easily, safely and effectively. The device
is particularly helpful in the management (coagulation and cutting) of cerebral microvessels
during the resection of brain tumors rich in vascularity or AVMs. The advantages of
the instrument are the avoidance of exchanges of bipolar and microscissors under the
microscope, reduction of fatigue for the operator, and decreases of operative time
and blood loss while still achieving a good result.
