Metzenbaum scissors are specialized surgical instruments designed for cutting delicate tissues during operations. They feature long, slender blades that can be either curved or straight, with blunt tips that allow for precise cutting of soft tissues while minimizing damage to surrounding structures. These scissors are frequently used in various surgical procedures, especially for dissection and cutting fine tissues in muscles, intestines, or organs.
The main types of Metzenbaum scissors are straight and angled. Straight Metzenbaum scissors have blades that are aligned for general use, while angled Metzenbaum scissors have curved blades that provide precision in hard-to-reach or delicate areas.

The metzenbaum scissors market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $1.63 billion in 2024 to $1.7 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the increasing adoption of laparoscopic and endoscopic surgeries, demand for specialized surgical instruments, expansion of healthcare infrastructure, rising surgery practices, and increasing trade of medical instruments.
The metzenbaum scissors market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.99 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.0%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing volume of surgeries, increase in the aging population, the preference for disposable Metzenbaum scissors, and regulatory standards and compliance. Major trends in the forecast period include advancements in surgical techniques, the development of new innovative materials and designs, the growing demand for precision instruments, the rise of e-commerce platforms, and advancements in surgical instruments.
The increasing number of surgical procedures is projected to drive growth in the metzenbaum scissors market. Surgical procedures, which are medical operations performed by trained surgeons to treat diseases, injuries, or other conditions, involve making incisions or using specialized instruments to manipulate tissues, organs, or bones. The rise in surgical procedures is attributed to factors such as aging populations, advancements in medical technology, a growing prevalence of chronic diseases, and improved healthcare access. Metzenbaum scissors are essential in these procedures for cutting and dissecting delicate tissues. Their design, with long, slender blades and blunt tips, allows for precise tissue handling with minimal trauma. For example, in March 2023, the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons reported a significant 102% increase in cosmetic surgeries in the UK, with around 31,057 procedures performed in 2022. This trend highlights the growing demand for metzenbaum scissors.
The growing prevalence of cancer is also expected to boost the metzenbaum scissors market. Cancer, characterized by the uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells, can lead to severe health issues or death if untreated. Risk factors such as smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and poor diet significantly contribute to cancer risk. Metzenbaum scissors are valuable in cancer surgeries as they provide precise tissue separation with minimal damage, facilitating thorough tumor removal while preserving healthy tissue. Their fine blades reduce trauma and bleeding, enhancing visibility and control during complex procedures. For instance, the World Health Organization projected in February 2024 that new cancer cases will rise from 20 million in 2022 to 35 million by 2050. This increasing cancer incidence is driving demand for advanced surgical tools such as metzenbaum scissors.
