Clinical Application
Designed for controlled exposure of soft tissue during open abdominal and gastrointestinal procedures, this retractor provides atraumatic retraction of bowel, omentum and other soft viscera. Its broad blade distributes pressure across tissue, helping minimize focal trauma while improving visualization of the operative field. Common applications include exploratory laparotomy, intestinal anastomosis, and general soft-tissue retraction in general and colorectal surgery.
Design & Configuration
The instrument features a single broad, flat blade sized for gentle, wide-surface retraction. The 90 x 28 mm blade dimension provides a large contact area to spread retraction forces, and the 25 cm overall length offers reach into the abdominal cavity without excessive bulk at the handle. The handheld configuration allows the assistant or surgeon to rapidly adjust retraction angle and tension as procedural needs change.
