Aufranc Surgical Retractor 10.0 mm Blade 26.7 cm (10.5)

Controlled Retraction for Clearer Surgical Access

The Aufranc cobra retractor is a handheld surgical retractor designed to help maintain tissue exposure during procedures. Its 10 1/2-inch length supports reach into the operative field, while the 10mm blunt blade provides a defined contact surface for controlled retraction. The cobra-style profile is suited to practical handling when consistent exposure is needed without adding unnecessary complexity to the instrument setup. Appropriate for general surgery and orthopedic workflows, it can support routine positioning and visualization tasks where a compact, blunt retractor is preferred. Its straightforward configuration also helps integrate it into established instrument-handling practices.

Use Cases

• Support tissue retraction and maintain exposure during general surgery procedures.
• Assist with access and visualization in orthopedic operative workflows.
• Use the 10mm blade to apply focused retraction where a defined contact width is appropriate.
• Employ the 10 1/2-inch length when additional reach into the operative field is useful.
• Incorporate into handheld retraction tasks requiring a blunt tip and direct instrument control.
