Weitlaner Wullstein Retractor 3x4pr. bl. 13cm

Clinical Application

This self-retaining retractor provides stable, hands‑free exposure of soft tissue during superficial and moderately deep procedures. The 3x4 prong configuration with blunt tips is suited to atraumatic retraction of skin, subcutaneous tissue, and superficial fascia, making it useful in otolaryngology, plastic and reconstructive cases, dermatologic excisions, oral surgery, and small general surgery or minor orthopedic exposures where controlled wound retraction is required.

Design & Configuration

The opposing blade design with 3 prongs on one side and 4 on the other allows for asymmetric retraction when needed and balances tissue holding with minimized puncture risk due to blunt tips. A ratchet-style locking mechanism provides adjustable, stable tension so the surgeon can maintain exposure without an assistant. The 13 cm shaft length is optimized for shallow to moderate depth work, offering sufficient reach while remaining compact for tight operative fields.
