Surgical Retractor 33.0 cm (13.0)

Controlled Retraction for Clearer Operative Access

The 13" Ribbon Retractor 1" width is a surgical retractor designed to help maintain tissue displacement and support visualization during operative exposure. Its ribbon-style profile provides a broad, defined surface for controlled retraction, while the 13" overall length supports access within the operative field. Suitable for use across General Surgery and Neurosurgery workflows, it can assist with positioning tissue away from the area of interest during hands-on surgical tasks. The straightforward configuration supports familiar handling and can contribute to an organized approach when consistent retraction is needed.

Use Cases

• Support tissue retraction during operative exposure in General Surgery.
• Assist with maintaining access and visualization in Neurosurgery workflows.
• Position tissue away from the operative area during hands-on surgical tasks.
• Use the ribbon profile when a defined, broad retraction surface is appropriate.
• Incorporate into retraction setup where extended instrument length supports access to the field.
