Obwegeser Surgical Retractor 22.5 cm (9)

Controlled Retraction for Clearer Surgical Access

The 8 3/4" Obwegeser Retractor Original down 80×16 is a surgical retractor designed to hold tissue aside and support operative exposure during procedures. Its defined 8.75" overall length provides a practical reach for controlled positioning within the surgical field, while the down-style configuration identified in its name supports task-focused handling during retraction. Suitable for workflows in General Surgery and Maxillofacial Surgery, it helps organize access when steady tissue displacement and unobstructed visualization are important. As a purpose-built retractor, it supports repeatable instrument handling without introducing unnecessary complexity into the operative setup.

Use Cases

• Supporting tissue retraction to maintain access and visualization during General Surgery procedures.
• Positioning and holding tissue aside during Maxillofacial Surgery workflows.
• Using the retractor for controlled exposure where its 8.75" overall length provides practical reach.
• Incorporating a dedicated retractor into operative setups that require steady, task-focused tissue displacement.
