Finochietto Spreader serr 73x65x170mm Alum.

Clinical Application

This instrument is designed to provide controlled, hands-free retraction of the ribs during thoracic procedures. It is used to establish and maintain exposure for thoracotomy, lung resections, mediastinal access, and trauma-related chest exploration where stable lateral separation of the intercostal space is required. The serrated blade surfaces improve purchase on cortical rib surfaces, reducing slippage during incremental spreading.

Design & Configuration

The Finochietto-style geometry features opposing blades and a ratchet-based self-retaining mechanism that permits gradual, locked expansion to the desired span. Serrated blade faces enhance grip on the rib edges to minimize movement once spread. The profile and ratchet control allow the surgeon to apply and maintain steady lateral force while freeing an assistant from holding manual retractors, improving ergonomic efficiency in the operative field.
