Middeldorpf Retractor 20x22mm, 22cm

Clinical Application

This instrument provides focused retraction for precise exposure of small to medium surgical fields. The compact 20 x 22 mm blade footprint is intended for localized soft-tissue retraction, mucosal retraction, and wound-edge stabilization in procedures where control and minimal tissue trauma are priorities. Common applications include ENT, oral/maxillofacial, plastic/reconstructive, and other specialty procedures that require fine, controlled retraction in confined spaces.

Design & Configuration

The small rectangular blade concentrates retraction force over a limited area to improve visualization while reducing the amount of displaced tissue. A 22 cm shaft provides sufficient reach for deep or narrow operative sites while allowing the assistant or surgeon to maintain precise control. The straight configuration and compact blade size make the instrument well suited for delicate dissections and staged exposure where incremental retraction is required.
