An electric cutter for all surgical prostheses
JJ Wada, T Abe and N Horie
A new electric cutter for surgical prostheses has been developed and was
compared with surgical scissors for efficacy. This comparison of the two
methods was done by cutting the edges of nine popular prostheses. It was
concluded from gross and microscopical results after pulling both edges of
the grafts cut by the two methods that the electric cutter is much more
effective for surgical prostheses.
