Bruenings Brunk Antrum Retractor 21.5cm

Clinical Application

This antrum retractor is designed to provide atraumatic exposure of the maxillary antrum during procedures such as Caldwell-Luc approaches, open or combined maxillary sinus surgery, select endonasal access cases, and intraoral maxillofacial procedures. It facilitates stable soft-tissue and mucoperiosteal retraction to maintain visualization and working space for dissection, curettage, graft placement, or removal of pathology.

Design & Configuration

The instrument’s hand-held retractor configuration and 21.5 cm length provide the reach needed to access the maxillary antrum while keeping the surgeon’s hand clear of the operative field. A slim shaft and ergonomically finished handle improve line-of-sight and control, allowing precise placement and sustained retraction without obstructing instruments or endoscopes. The overall geometry supports both direct exposure and adjunctive use with suction or endoscopic visualization.
