Lahey Retractor 28x6mm, 19cm

Clinical Application

Designed for precise soft-tissue retraction in confined operative fields, this Lahey-style retractor is commonly used during thyroid and parathyroid surgery, cervical and other head-and-neck procedures, and any open case requiring a narrow, controlled blade for exposure. The narrow 6 mm blade footprint helps isolate small tissue planes and glandular tissue without broad compression of surrounding structures.

Design & Configuration

The instrument's slender rectangular blade (28 x 6 mm) provides a low-profile contact surface that fits into tight spaces and along narrow anatomical corridors. A 19 cm overall length gives the surgeon adequate reach and control while maintaining tactile feedback. The flat, single-blade configuration allows direct manual retraction and precise tissue manipulation where fine exposure is essential.
