Farabeuf Retractor D/E set/2, 12cm

Clinical Application

Designed for short, controlled retraction of skin and subcutaneous tissue, this double-ended Farabeuf set provides exposure of wound edges in small-field procedures. Common applications include general surgery for superficial incisions, plastic and reconstructive procedures, ENT and oral/maxillofacial cases where limited, precise retraction is required, and use during wound closure, drain placement, or hemostasis in confined operative sites. The compact profile minimizes interference with instruments and the surgical field.

Design & Configuration

The double-ended geometry offers two working tips on each instrument, enabling quick changes in orientation without exchanging instruments. At 12 cm overall length, this size is optimized for superficial exposures and procedures in shallow cavities or small incisions where longer retractors would obstruct access. The flat, two-pronged blades distribute retraction force across tissue edges for controlled exposure while reducing focal pressure and trauma. Supplied as a matched set of two, it facilitates bilateral retraction or allows an assistant to maintain consistent exposure on both sides of a wound.
