Hibbs Surgical Retractor 24.1 cm (9.5)

Practical Retraction for Surgical Access and Visualization

The 9 1/2" Hibbs Retractor is a handheld surgical retractor designed to hold tissue aside and help maintain access within the operative field. Its 9.5" overall length provides useful reach for positioning during open procedures, while the Hibbs-style profile supports controlled manual retraction and exposure. In General Surgery, it can assist with maintaining a workable field during tissue dissection and access. In Orthopedic procedures, it may support exposure around relevant operative areas where a handheld retractor is appropriate. Its straightforward design fits workflows that value direct handling, stable positioning, and clear instrument control.

Use Cases

• Support manual tissue retraction during open General Surgery procedures.
• Assist with maintaining operative exposure during tissue dissection and access.
• Provide handheld retraction support in Orthopedic procedures where a Hibbs retractor is appropriate.
• Use the 9.5" length to position the instrument while maintaining practical working reach.
• Incorporate into surgical setups requiring direct, controlled retraction rather than fixed retraction.
