Cubital tunnel release - s/l toonami scissors - sm - kasey


Posted: Oct 05, 2013

I am doing a cubital tunnel release report and it sounds like "toonami" scissors (too-na-me). Can anyone help with this? Also, can someone post a link to a good orthopedic surgical website? TIA! Sentence: The blunt dissection was performed down to the ulnar nerve, which was easily identified, and this was unroofed with "toonami" scissors.

Also - is it "loop" magnification or "loupe" magnification? - kasey

I have found both things on the web - "loop" magnification and "loupe" magnification - both from surgical sites. Can anyone help with this as well? It is still in the same report. TIA

either word, since it appears that you do not know what they mean. Had you actually done some of your own research, you might have been able to answer your own question and would have learned something in the process.
