Clinical Application
Provides controlled retraction and exposure of soft tissues in confined or shallow operative fields. The broad rectangular blade distributes retraction force over a defined contact area, making it useful for opening small-to-moderate incisions and maintaining exposure of subcutaneous tissues, fascia, or mucosal surfaces during dissection and closure. Suitable for procedures where precision and tissue protection are priorities.
Design & Configuration
The rectangular 45 x 50 mm blade offers a predictable, flat contact surface that helps distribute pressure evenly and reduce focal tissue stress. At 25.5 cm overall length the instrument provides reach and leverage for deepened exposure while remaining manageable for handheld use. The simple single-blade configuration facilitates rapid placement and frequent repositioning during the case.
