Kocher Retractor 3pr. blunt 22cm

Clinical Application

A three-prong blunt retractor used to expose soft tissue, fascia, and wound edges during open procedures. The tri-tine configuration provides broad, stabilized retraction of superficial and intermediate tissue planes, improving visualization for dissection, hemostasis, and suturing. Common indications include general abdominal exposure, orthopedic and soft-tissue cases, and plastic or reconstructive procedures where atraumatic holding of tissue is required.

Design & Configuration

The three blunt tines distribute retraction forces across multiple contact points, reducing focal pressure compared with single-hook instruments and lowering the risk of tearing delicate tissue. The blunt tips allow secure hold without penetrating tissue, making the retractor suitable for wound-edge and muscle retraction. At 22 cm overall length, the instrument offers reach into moderate-depth incisions while remaining controllable for the assistant or primary operator.
