Graefe muscle hook 5 1/2 12.0mm long angled tip round handle titanium

Controlled Retraction for General and Ophthalmic Workflows

The Graefe muscle hook is a hand-held surgical hook designed to engage and gently retract muscle during procedures where controlled access and clear visualization are important. Its 5 1/2-inch length provides useful reach, while the 12.0 mm long angled tip supports targeted positioning around the operative field. A round handle offers a familiar format for controlled instrument manipulation, and the titanium construction provides a lightweight metal option for routine handling. Suitable for general surgery and ophthalmic workflows, this hook supports precise positioning during tissue exposure without adding unnecessary complexity to the instrument setup.

Use Cases

• Engaging and retracting muscle during general surgery procedures.
• Supporting controlled tissue positioning when access or visualization must be maintained.
• Using the angled tip to approach anatomy from a practical working angle.
• Supporting ophthalmic workflows that require a dedicated muscle hook for localized retraction and handling.

Specifications
