MacCollum-Dingman Breast Dissector

The MacCollum-Dingman Breast Dissector is a specialized surgical instrument designed for blunt soft tissue dissection and controlled creation of implant pockets during breast surgery. It is widely used in plastic and reconstructive surgery to develop precise tissue planes while minimizing unnecessary trauma to surrounding structures. The instrument is commonly known as the MacCollum-Dingman Dissector or Breast Pocket Dissector and is particularly associated with breast augmentation, breast reconstruction, implant revision, and subglandular or subpectoral pocket development.

The instrument features a broad 38 mm spatulated blade with an elongated shaft that provides excellent reach and controlled blunt dissection. Industry-standard versions are commonly manufactured with an overall length of approximately 41–43 cm (16–17½ inches), making them suitable for breast procedures requiring deep surgical access. Its design facilitates tissue separation while maintaining clear visualization during implant pocket formation.

The MacCollum-Dingman Breast Dissector is typically manufactured from high-quality surgical stainless steel with a corrosion-resistant satin or matte finish to minimize operating room glare. It is reusable and intended for repeated cleaning and sterilization according to established hospital sterilization protocols.
