Kocher Retractor 60x20mm, 23cm

Clinical Application

This Kocher retractor is designed to provide reliable manual retraction of dense soft tissue, fascial layers, and wound edges during open surgical procedures. The 60 x 20 mm blade offers a moderate retraction footprint suitable for controlled exposure in general surgery, orthopedics, thoracic, vascular, and trauma cases. The 23 cm overall length gives additional reach into deeper wounds while remaining manageable for one-handed use.

Design & Configuration

The Kocher-style blade geometry provides a stable, low-profile retraction surface that distributes pressure and minimizes tissue slippage under traction. Blade dimensions (60 x 20 mm) balance surface coverage with access to the operative field; the 23 cm shaft length increases reach without compromising tactile feedback for the assistant or surgeon. As a handheld instrument, it is intended for active manipulation to retract, elevate, or maintain soft-tissue exposure during dissection and closure.
