It has been proved that any two polygons having the same area are scissors congruent by Bolyai in 1832 and by Gerwien in 1833, respectively. It is well known that the concepts of congruence and scissors congruence are different for the set of polygons in the Euclidean plane. Let C be a unit circle divided into n parts equally. We denote the set of ends of these parts on C by S = {P0, P1, . . . ...

Retrospective analysis of surgical outcomes for enucleation in pediatric retinoblastoma stage 5B using the snare wire loop (n = 55) and standard curved enucleation scissors (n = 22) revealed that a statistically significant longer mean optic nerve length was obtained with the snare (13.35 mm) compared with scissors (11.05 mm; P = .005). Four scissor cases had prolonged bleeding and required thr...

In summary, we described the use of laser scissors and tweezers from three perspectives: (a) the historical background from which these two techniques evolved, (b) an understanding and lack of understanding of the mechanisms of interaction with the biological systems, and (c) the applications of the scissors and tweezers alone and in combination. As the technology improves and we gain a better ...
