Henley Retractor 3x4pr. sharp 16.5cm

Clinical Application

This hand-held retractor is designed to provide secure engagement and controlled retraction of soft tissue and wound edges. The sharp 3x4 prong configuration delivers reliable purchase through dermis, subcutaneous tissue and fascia for procedures that require steady exposure of small-to-moderate operative fields. Common uses include general surgery, ENT, plastic and reconstructive procedures where precise tissue control and minimal instrument slippage are required.

Design & Configuration

The 3x4 prong, sharp arrangement combines two prong counts to balance tissue engagement and distribution of holding force: the 3-prong side offers focused purchase with reduced tearing, while the 4-prong side increases contact area for a firmer hold. Sharp prongs permit secure retraction in confined or shallow operative sites. At 16.5 cm length the instrument provides adequate reach for superficial cavities while remaining maneuverable for single-handed adjustments. Clinicians should select a sharp-prong retractor when a secure hold is needed and exercise care on friable tissues to limit trauma.
