Record 1 2008-08-19

English

Subject field(s)
  • Surgical Instruments
OBS

Instruments designed to cut objects, materials, and/or tissues using two metallic ... blades with sharp edges that slide past each other (i.e., shearing action). The blades are usually attached to handles with the proximal end conformed as a ring to facilitate holding and operation with the fingers; both parts are joined by a swivel pin in the center.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Instruments chirurgicaux
DEF

Instrument formé de deux lames métalliques à extrémité pointue ou arrondie, tranchantes sur une partie de leur longueur, réunies et croisées en leur milieu par un pivot, munies d’un anneau permettant de les manier et utilisé, en chirurgie, pour sectionner ou dilacérer.

OBS

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».

PHR

Ciseaux angulés, droits, courbes, mousses, pointus, tranchants, émoussés, fins, stériles, à usage unique.

DEF

Relatif à la chirurgie.

CONT

Opération, intervention chirurgicale. Instruments chirurgicaux.

OBS

Surgical : Voici un bon exemple de l'imprécision des qualificatifs anglais. «Surgical tuberculosis» signifie : tuberculose qui nécessite l'intervention chirurgicale.(Débats, 25 mars 1925). Il serait ridicule de vouloir rendre cet adjectif par l'équivalent français. Notre langue veut plus de clarté.
