Deaver Surgical Retractor 39.4 cm (15.5)

Practical Reach for Controlled Retraction

The 15 1/2" Willauer-Deaver Retractor, 2" wide, is a surgical retractor intended to hold tissue and organs aside while supporting access and visualization at the operative site. Its 15.5" overall length provides useful reach for general surgery and neurosurgery workflows, while the 2" width offers a broad contact area for practical retraction tasks. The instrument’s straightforward design supports controlled positioning and handling during procedures where dependable exposure is important. By combining extended reach with a broad working dimension, it can help maintain a clear field without requiring the surgeon to work as close to the incision.

Use Cases

• Support tissue and organ retraction during general surgery procedures.
• Provide extended reach when positioning a retractor within a deeper operative field.
• Assist with maintaining exposure and visualization during neurosurgery workflows.
• Use the 2" width for broad, task-focused retraction of tissue or organs.
• Reposition as needed during procedures requiring sustained or adjusted operative access.
