Various types of bone scrapers, skin scratchers and dissectors have been devised by practitioners. However, in modern operating rooms, a well sharpened general dissector is rarely seen. Experience in doing a wide range of surgical procedures indicated that well crafted dissectors with hollow-ground blades can improve the speed and accuracy of the surgeon as well as reduce the bleeding. The blades of these dissectors should be contra-angled and always kept sharp. To reduce expense, disposable round-ended blades, factory sharpened, could slide into the firmly gripping chucks of suitable handles.
