Middeldorpf Retractor 26x30mm, 23.5cm

Clinical Application

This handheld retractor provides controlled retraction and exposure of superficial soft tissues and incision edges. The broad 26 x 30 mm blade distributes pressure across a wider surface to minimize point loading, making it appropriate for delicate mucosal and subcutaneous retraction during ENT, oral/maxillofacial, plastic and minor general surgical procedures. The shaft length allows access into shallow cavities and deeper incision sites while keeping the surgeon’s hand clear of the field.

Design & Configuration

The rectangular 26 x 30 mm blade offers a flat, atraumatic contact surface that stabilizes tissue margins and improves visualization without excessive focal pressure. The 23.5 cm overall length provides reach into moderately deep wounds while maintaining ergonomic control for handheld retraction. A simple flat-blade geometry facilitates gentle sweeping or elevation of soft tissue and is easy to position alongside other instruments.
