Lukens Surgical Retractor 12.0 mm Blade 17.1 cm (6.7)

Versatile Double-Ended Retraction for Controlled Surgical Access

The Lukens thymus retractor is a double-ended surgical retractor designed to help maintain exposure during tissue-handling tasks in ENT and general surgery. Its 6 3/4-inch length supports practical handling, while the two blade widths—8.0 mm and 12.0 mm—provide a choice of working surface for varying access needs. The flat handle offers a straightforward grip for controlled positioning, and the double-ended configuration keeps two blade options in one instrument. This combination can help streamline instrument selection while supporting clear access and organized workflow during appropriate retraction procedures.

Use Cases

• Support thymus retraction and tissue exposure during appropriate general surgery procedures.
• Provide a compact retraction option for ENT procedures requiring controlled access in a confined operative area.
• Select between the 8.0 mm and 12.0 mm blade ends according to the intended retraction task and available working space.
• Use the flat handle to position and adjust the retractor during procedures where steady manual control is required.
