Deaver Retractor 19x180mm

Clinical Application

Designed to provide deep, atraumatic retraction of viscera and soft tissues, this curved retractor improves exposure of posterior abdominal, retroperitoneal and thoracic operative fields. The broad, concave profile allows an assistant to hold and retract organs such as bowel, liver or lung while the primary surgeon works in deeper cavities. Its dimensions suit procedures requiring moderate-depth retraction without excessive footprint at the wound edge.

Design & Configuration

The concave, curved blade distributes pressure across a broader surface than a narrow blade, reducing focal pressure on tissues and lowering the risk of edge-related trauma. The single-ended, handheld configuration enables the assistant to position and redirect retraction quickly during dissection and exposure. A 19 mm blade width with 180 mm blade length provides a balance between access and control—long enough to reach deeper planes while maintaining a manageable profile for manual handling.
