Cloward Surgical Retractor 15.9 cm (6.3)

Controlled Retraction for Cervical and Lamina Exposure

The Cloward cervical/lamina retractor is a surgical retractor designed to hold tissue aside during procedures requiring access around the cervical or lamina region. Its 6 1/4-inch length supports practical reach, while the cross-serrated jaws provide a secure contact surface for controlled positioning. A ring handle and ratchet allow the instrument to be held in place without continuously maintaining manual pressure, supporting organized handling at the operative field. Suitable for relevant workflows in General Surgery and Neurosurgery, this retractor offers a focused option for exposure and visualization tasks where dependable positioning is important.

Use Cases

• Retracting tissue to support access during cervical procedures.
• Maintaining exposure around the lamina during relevant surgical workflows.
• Using the cross-serrated jaws for controlled engagement during retraction.
• Applying the ring handle and ratchet when sustained instrument positioning is required.
• Supporting exposure tasks in General Surgery and Neurosurgery without implying exclusive specialty use.
