Roux Retractor dbl ended 14cm Fig.1

Clinical Application

This double-ended Roux retractor provides controlled, atraumatic retraction of superficial soft tissues through small incisions and wounds. It is commonly used in general surgery, minor procedures, plastic and reconstructive cases, ENT procedures, and outpatient settings where precise exposure of subcutaneous tissue and fascia is required. The instrument is intended for handheld retraction and brief intermittent exposure rather than sustained self-retaining retraction.

Design & Configuration

The double-ended design supplies two working ends for rapid reversal or repositioning without changing instruments, improving efficiency at the operative field. At 14 cm overall length, the geometry balances reach with tactile control, permitting adequate exposure in shallow to moderate-depth wounds while maintaining fine control in confined operative sites. Smooth, flat blade surfaces distribute pressure across tissue to minimize focal trauma and permit gentle separation of soft tissues and skin edges.
