Clinical Application
Designed to provide wide, atraumatic exposure of deep wounds and body cavities, this retractor is commonly used during laparotomy, pelvic procedures, exploratory surgery, and soft-tissue dissection where broad retraction and direct illumination improve visualization. The broad 120 x 50 mm blade distributes pressure across tissue edges to reduce focal trauma and allows assistants or an assistant-stand to maintain stable exposure during suturing, exploration, or haemostasis.
Design & Configuration
The instrument features a broad flat blade with a 120 x 50 mm footprint and a 26 cm overall length to reach deeper operative fields while keeping handles accessible to the operator. The bundled light carrier positions an illumination source at the retractor blade, improving shadow reduction at the wound edge and facilitating detailed inspection of tissue planes without requiring separate lighting probes. The blade geometry provides wide, even retraction along a linear edge, making it useful for retracting abdominal wall, bowel edges, uterine fundus, or soft tissue flaps.

Material & Construction
Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel for corrosion resistance and repeated reprocessing. The construction is solid and machined to provide a smooth, contoured blade surface to minimize tissue catch. The integrated light carrier is sized to accept standard surgical illumination probes or light cables used in the operative field.
Quality & Compliance
Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
Brand Comparison
Comparable in form and function to equivalent instruments offered by major US medical suppliers.
