Hip retractor 1 wide x 6 deep blunt prongs flat t-handle

Controlled Retraction with Practical Reach and Handling

The hip retractor is a manual surgical retractor designed to help maintain access and visualization by holding tissue or adjacent structures aside during procedures. Its 1-inch-wide, 6-inch-deep profile provides a defined working reach for tasks requiring focused placement, while the blunt prongs support controlled contact. A flat T-handle offers a straightforward handhold for positioning and adjustment during general surgery and orthopedic workflows. The compact, purpose-oriented design can support organized instrument handling when access must be maintained without introducing unnecessary complexity into the operative setup.

Use Cases

• Support focused retraction tasks during general surgery procedures where a blunt-pronged instrument is appropriate.
• Assist with exposure and access during orthopedic procedures involving the hip or nearby operative areas.
• Use the 6-inch depth to help position the retractor at the required working reach.
• Use the flat T-handle to place, adjust, and steady the instrument during manual retraction.
• Apply the 1-inch-wide retractor profile when a defined contact area is suited to the task.
