Roux Surgical Retractor 16.8 cm (6.6)

Double-Ended Access for Controlled Surgical Retraction

The Roux retractor is a double-ended surgical retractor designed to help maintain exposure during open procedures. Its two working ends provide size options within one instrument, supporting practical access adjustments as the operative field changes. The 6 5/8-inch overall size and 1-inch by 1 5/8-inch dimensions offer a compact profile for controlled handling and positioning. Suitable for general surgery and cardiovascular applications, it can assist with retracting tissue or surrounding structures while the flat handle supports a straightforward grip and manipulation technique. Its broad blade dimensions are suited to routine exposure tasks where dependable instrument control and clear access are important.

Use Cases

• Support tissue retraction and exposure during general surgery procedures.
• Assist with maintaining access around the operative field in cardiovascular surgery.
• Use either end to accommodate changing retraction requirements during an open procedure.
• Position the instrument for controlled manual retraction where a compact 6 5/8-inch profile is appropriate.
