Volkmann Retractor 3pr. blunt 22cm

Clinical Application

Used for atraumatic retraction of superficial soft tissues during a wide range of procedures. The three blunt prongs provide broad, controlled exposure of wound edges and shallow operative fields for procedures such as hand surgery, plastic and reconstructive cases, minor orthopedic exposures and general surgical closures. The instrument is intended to be hand-held by an assistant or primary operator to maintain consistent visibility while minimizing focal tissue penetration.

Design & Configuration

The distal arrangement of three blunt prongs disperses retraction force over a small area to reduce point pressure and the risk of tissue perforation compared with toothed rakes. The 22 cm overall length offers reach and leverage suitable for small-to-moderate depth cavities while remaining manageable for fine tissue manipulation. The simple, open prong geometry facilitates rapid placement and removal and allows the assistant to adjust tension and angle to optimize exposure without obscuring the surgical field.
