Clinical Application
This handheld Hosel retractor is designed to provide focused retraction of superficial soft tissues and wound edges during open procedures where a narrow, rectangular blade is advantageous. The 60 x 20 mm blade gives a compact footprint for exposing small incisions, skin flaps, and superficial dissections while the 25 cm length helps maintain working distance between the surgical field and the operator's hand.
Design & Configuration
The flat, rectangular blade geometry concentrates retraction across a controlled surface area to improve visualization in shallow cavities and narrow openings. The slim 60 x 20 mm profile allows the blade to be positioned in tight spaces without excessive tissue distortion. The 25 cm overall length provides reach and ergonomic handling for the assistant or primary surgeon during routine exposure maneuvers.
