Surgical Retractor 26.0 cm (10.2)

Controlled Retraction for Clearer Operative Access

The 10 1/4" Darrach Shouler Retractor 1/2" W is a handheld surgical retractor designed to support controlled tissue retraction and maintain working access during procedures. Its 10 1/4-inch overall length provides useful reach for positioning around the operative field, while the named 1/2-inch width supports focused placement where a narrower retractor profile is preferred. As part of the retractor family, it can contribute to organized exposure and instrument handling in General Surgery and Orthopedic workflows. The straightforward design supports deliberate placement, adjustment, and removal as procedural access requirements change.

Use Cases

• Support controlled retraction during General Surgery procedures requiring maintained access to the operative field.
• Assist with exposure and tissue positioning when a 1/2-inch-wide retractor profile is appropriate.
• Provide reach for positioning around the surgical site using the 10 1/4-inch overall length.
• Support Orthopedic workflows where manual retraction is needed to help maintain working access.
• Reposition or remove the retractor as visualization and access requirements change during a procedure.
