German term

Hals-Organmesser

German to English Medical Medical: Instruments Pathology
Hi ProZ-Profis!

I am translating a medical instruments catalog and this term is baffling me.

The context:
bestehende aus:
1 Stück Seziermesser mit Metallheft, Schnittlänge 195 mm
1 Stück Seziermesser klein mit Metallheft, Schnittlänge 100 mm
1 Stück Hals-Organmesser mit Metallheft, Schnittlänge 100 mm
1 Stück Seziermesser groß mit Holzheft, Schnittlänge 110 mm
1 Stück Knorpelmesser mit Metallheft, Schnittlänge 70 mm
2 Stück Incisionsschere 145 mm
1 Stück Darmschere 210 mm mit Knopfspitze
1 Stück Anatomische Pinzette 160 mm standard

Any suggestions?

Thank you in advance for any help that you can provide!!

Best regards,
t r e y

Hi Phil, You're absolutely right! Pathology not surgery. Not sure what the knife is used for as there is no context. But there are a LOT of bad translations out there (and I am trying not to create another one!)

Are you sure this is surgery and not pathology?
Here's a picture of one:
http://remed.charite.de/fileadmin/user_upload/microsites/m_c...
"Mit ihm schneidet Prof. Tsokos den Hals auf und löst Organe, wie Kehlkopf
und Speiseröhre, aus dem Körper heraus."
"Neck organ knife" doesn't get any hits, but that doesn't mean it's wrong. Or it could just be "neck/throat knife".

agree philgoddard : Or just "neck" or "neck organs". I'm sure there's no definitive name for this.
