Meyerding Retractor large 90x50mm, 24cm

Clinical Application

This large Meyerding retractor is designed to provide broad, atraumatic exposure of soft tissue and wound edges. The 90 x 50 mm blade delivers wide retraction for improved visualization during incision, dissection, and closure. Its 24 cm overall length gives the operator reach into deeper wounds while allowing an assistant or primary surgeon to maintain controlled retraction. Common uses include general surgical cases, orthopedic exposures, and select plastic or reconstructive procedures where a wide, stable field is required.

Design & Configuration

The broad, flat blade geometry distributes retraction forces over a larger surface area to reduce focal pressure on tissue and minimize trauma to edges. The 90 x 50 mm footprint balances exposure with tissue protection, while the 24 cm shaft length provides reach without excessive leverage that can be difficult to control. As a handheld instrument, it is intended for dynamic retraction—quick repositioning and tactile feedback—making it useful for assistant-held or surgeon-held tasks where field visibility must be frequently adjusted.
