Clinical Application
This hollow-blade retractor is intended to provide focused exposure of superficial wounds, small surgical cavities and soft-tissue planes where a low-profile, narrow blade is required. The 14 mm blade width offers a precise footprint for separating tissue edges and maintaining a working corridor during minor open procedures, soft-tissue dissections, and ancillary exposures in ambulatory surgery centers and operating rooms.
Design & Configuration
The hollow-profile blade creates a slim, trough-like working surface that reduces bulk in the field and helps preserve visualization. The 16 cm length provides sufficient reach for most superficial and mid-depth exposures without excessive handle leverage. The narrow hollow geometry limits tissue compression while allowing clear access for instruments and suction along the blade margin, facilitating controlled retraction in confined anatomy.
