Controlled Retraction for Focused Surgical Access
The Knapp lacrimal sac retractor is a 6-inch hand-held retractor designed to provide focused tissue retraction and help maintain a clearer working area during delicate procedures. Its flexible shaft supports positioning in confined operative fields, while two blunt prongs provide a defined contact point for controlled handling. The 5.0 mm width and flat handle offer a compact profile for instrument manipulation. Although associated with lacrimal sac procedures, this retractor may also support selected ENT, cardiovascular, general surgery, ophthalmic, and plastic surgery workflows where a small, blunt-pronged retractor is appropriate.
Use Cases
- Retract tissue around the lacrimal sac during ophthalmic procedures requiring focused access.
- Support controlled exposure in ENT procedures involving compact or confined operative fields.
- Assist with localized tissue retraction during general surgery when a small blunt-pronged instrument is selected.
- Provide focused retraction during cardiovascular procedures where the operative approach calls for a narrow, hand-held retractor.
- Support tissue positioning in plastic surgery workflows requiring precise access and a compact instrument profile.
Specifications
Care & Handling
- Clean the instrument promptly after use according to facility protocols and the applicable instructions for use.
- Inspect the blunt prongs, flexible shaft, and flat handle for visible residue, damage, or distortion before reuse.
- Handle the flexible shaft carefully during cleaning, transport, and setup to help preserve its intended form.
- Store the retractor in a manner that protects the prongs and prevents contact damage from other instruments.
