Middeldorf Retractor H/handle 26x30mm, 23.5cm

Clinical Application

This H-handle retractor is designed to provide stable, hand-held retraction of soft tissue and wound edges to maintain exposure during dissection, hemostasis and implant or device placement. The broad 26 x 30 mm blade offers a balance between surface contact and visibility, making it useful in general, plastic/reconstructive, orthopedic and other procedures that require controlled retraction without frequent repositioning.

Design & Configuration

The H-handle geometry provides an ergonomic, two-handed purchase or a secure single-hand grip that improves control over blade orientation and pressure. The 23.5 cm overall length gives moderate reach for superficial to semi-deep cavities while maintaining tactile feedback. The relatively broad blade dimension distributes retraction forces over a larger surface area to help minimize focal pressure on tissues while maintaining a clear exposure for the surgeon.
