Perkins Surgical Retractor Curved 13.3 cm (5.2)

Controlled Retraction for Focused Operative Access

The Perkins otologic self-retaining retractor is designed to hold tissue away from the operative field while leaving the user’s hands available for other tasks. Its 5 1/4-inch length, curved profile, and right-sided configuration support access in ENT procedures and general-surgery workflows where controlled exposure is needed. Three blunt prongs provide a defined contact arrangement, while the solid serrated blade, ring handle, and ratchet catch support deliberate placement and adjustment. The self-retaining design can help maintain retraction during a procedure, reducing the need for continuous manual holding and supporting an organized, focused operating field.

Use Cases

• Support self-retaining tissue retraction during otologic and other ENT procedures.
• Provide controlled exposure when working through a curved access path in a general-surgery setting.
• Use the three blunt prongs to position the retractor while limiting reliance on continuous manual holding.
• Adjust and maintain placement through the ring handle and ratchet catch during focused operative work.
• Apply the right-sided configuration where the named instrument orientation suits the intended approach.
