Kocher Langenbeck Retractor 55x11mm, 21.5cm

Clinical Application

Designed to provide focused soft-tissue and periosteal retraction, this Kocher Langenbeck pattern retractor is commonly used for posterior approaches to the hip and acetabulum, trauma procedures, and general surgical exposure where a narrow, rectangular blade is useful. The blade footprint concentrates retraction force for targeted visualization of deep anatomy while the overall length supports access in deeper fields.

Design & Configuration

The rectangular 55 x 11 mm blade delivers a narrow, stable contact surface that helps isolate and hold tissue or periosteum with minimal encroachment on the surgical field. The 21.5 cm overall length provides reach for deeper exposures without excessive shaft bulk, allowing the assistant or surgeon to maintain consistent tension and line of sight. The single-blade, hand-held configuration offers tactile feedback and positional control during dissection and retraction.
