Obwegeser Surgical Retractor Curved 8.0 cm (3.1)

Controlled Retraction for Organized Operative Access

The 8 1/2" Obwegeser Retractor is a surgical retractor designed to hold tissue aside and help maintain working access during procedures. Its curved-down profile and 16x80mm blade provide a defined contact shape for controlled placement, while the 8.5" overall length supports handling around the operative field. Suitable for general surgery and maxillofacial surgery applications, it can help organize exposure during tasks that require steady retraction and clear access. The focused design gives teams a practical instrument for positioning tissue away from the working area without adding unnecessary complexity to the instrument setup.

Use Cases

• Support tissue retraction during general surgery procedures where organized access to the operative field is required.
• Assist with retraction tasks in maxillofacial surgery while maintaining a practical working angle around the field.
• Use the curved-down profile to position the retractor for controlled tissue displacement.
• Apply the 16x80mm blade when a defined retraction surface is suited to the task.
• Handle the instrument across the operative field using its 8.5" overall length.

Care & Handling
