A scalpel for performing complex surgeries, such as c-sections, is formed of a body that is preferably elongated and shaped and sized to fit ergonomically into the hands of surgeons. The body has surfaces that are joined to each other by smooth transition elements to insure that the body has no points or sharp edges that could cut or scratch the surgeon or the patient. The body is formed with a triangular notch formed of a beak and an extension. A surgical blade, preferably a standard off-the-shelf surgical blade, is imbedded in the body and the only portion of the blade that is accessible is a portion of its cutting edge spanning the notch. The scalpel is used by introducing the beak into a slit in the tissue with the blade portion facing the direction in which the cut is to be made. The body of the scalpel is then grasped firmly and advanced to make the cut. The initial incision can be made with the tip of the beak.

L'invention concerne un scalpel destiné à effectuer des chirurgies complexes, telles que des césariennes, qui est formé d'un corps de préférence allongé formé et dimensionné pour s'adapter ergonomiquement aux mains de chirurgiens. Le corps présente des surfaces qui sont fusionnées les unes aux autres par des éléments de transition lisses pour assurer que le corps ne comporte pas de points ou de bords pointus qui pourraient couper ou écorcher le chirurgien ou le patient. Le corps est constitué d'un cran triangulaire formé d'un bec et d'une extension. Une lame chirurgicale, de préférence une lame chirurgicale prête à l'emploi standard, est incorporée dans le corps et la seule partie de la lame qui est accessible est une portion de son bord de découpe couvrant le cran. Le scalpel est utilisé en introduisant le bec dans une incision dans le tissu, la portion de lame faisant face à la direction dans laquelle la découpe doit être faite. Le corps du scalpel est ensuite saisi fermement et avancé pour effectuer la découpe. L'incision initiale peut être effectuée à l'aide de la pointe du bec.
