Kocher Retractor 40x12mm, 21cm

Clinical Application

Provides focused exposure of wound edges and superficial soft tissues during open procedures. The narrow 40 x 12 mm blade is sized for precise retraction in confined or shallow operative fields, facilitating visualization and instrument access in general surgery, orthopedics, plastic/reconstructive work and ENT procedures where controlled, local retraction is required.

Design & Configuration

The compact rectangular blade profile concentrates retraction force on a small footprint to maximize visualization while minimizing obstruction of the surgical field. A 21 cm overall length offers reach into moderate-depth wounds without excessive shaft bulk, and the handheld design allows dynamic, tactile control by the assistant or surgeon for intermittent retraction and rapid repositioning during dissection and wound closure.
