L'anglais établit une distinction entre «surgical scissors», qui couvrent toute la gamme des ciseaux utilisés en médecine, et «operating scissors», ciseaux utilisés plus spécifiquement pour les chirurgies. Cette distinction ne semble pas exister en français, bien que «ciseaux pour la chirurgie» et «ciseaux à chirurgie» semblent avoir un sens plus restreint que «ciseaux chirurgicaux». 6, record 1, French, - ciseaux
