Cushing Surgical Retractor 23.0 cm (9")

Controlled Retraction for Clear, Accessible Surgical Fields

The 9" Cushing Vein Retractor with a 1/2" wide blade is a handheld surgical retractor designed to hold tissue or vascular structures aside during procedures requiring direct access and visualization. Its 9" overall length provides practical reach for controlled positioning, while the defined blade width supports focused retraction in the operative field. Suitable for general surgery and neurosurgery applications, it can help organize exposure during delicate dissection and other tasks where steady, carefully directed tissue management is important. Its straightforward configuration supports familiar instrument handling and efficient movement within the surgical workflow.

Use Cases

• Retract tissue or vascular structures to help maintain access and visualization during general surgery.
• Support controlled exposure during neurosurgical dissection and related operative tasks.
• Position the blade to hold selected tissue aside while preserving working room for adjacent instruments.
• Use the 9" length when practical reach is needed for handheld retraction within the operative field.
