Lobster Surgical Retractor 16.5 cm (6.5)

Adaptable Retraction for Surgical Access and Visualization

The Lobster Malleable Swivel Retractor is a hand-held surgical retractor designed to help maintain access and visualization during procedures. Its malleable construction supports practical positioning adjustments, while the swivel design can assist with changing the retractor’s orientation as the operative field evolves. The 3" x 6 1/2" perforated blade provides a defined surface for retraction in General Surgery and other Surgical Retractors applications. Perforations may support visibility through the blade while helping the instrument remain useful across varied handling needs. Together, these features offer a versatile option for controlled tissue retraction and efficient instrument handling within established surgical technique and facility protocols.

Use Cases

• Support tissue retraction and operative-field access during General Surgery procedures.
• Use the malleable design to adjust blade positioning to the needs of the surgical field.
• Use the swivel configuration when reorientation is helpful during changing access requirements.
• Apply as a Surgical Retractors instrument when a perforated retractor blade is appropriate for the task.
• Use the defined blade dimensions to support practical positioning within the intended operative area.
