Surgery

Staples (1) by MORIZ

When Anton MORIZ founded his factory of surgical instruments in Cologne in 1969 he was in possession of the patent for the famous "Köln Sparklammern" - staples known for their economic usage. You could use and remove them without a specialized Instrument and you could reuse them after sterilisation.

Unfortunately the sterilisation standards got that hard, that the staples were condemned to disappear in human surgery - they survive in veterinary medicine.
