Beckman Self-Retaining Retractor 4.4 cm (1.7)

Controlled Retraction for General Surgical Exposure

The Beckman Adson Retractor is a 12-inch surgical retractor designed to hold tissue or wound edges aside during general surgery, helping maintain access and visibility at the operative site. Its sharp 4×4 teeth provide a defined engagement pattern for positioning, while the 3-inch distance from hinge to top supports access where the working end must reach into the field. The 1×1 3/4-inch dimension identifies the specified retractor size for handling and placement. This configuration offers a practical option for surgeons and staff seeking a manually controlled instrument for sustained tissue retraction during applicable procedures.

Use Cases

• Retracting tissue or wound edges to maintain access to the operative field during general surgery.
• Using the sharp 4×4 teeth for defined engagement when positioning the retractor at the surgical site.
• Applying the 12-inch length when additional hand reach is useful around the operative field.
• Using the 3-inch hinge-to-top dimension to support placement and handling within the working area.
