Ribbon Surgical Retractor 20.0 cm (8")

Malleable Ribbon Retraction for Controlled Surgical Access

The Ribbon retractor 8" malleable 1/2" wide blade flat handle is a hand-held retractor designed to support tissue retraction and maintain working access during surgery. Its malleable ribbon-style blade can be shaped by the surgical team to suit the operative area, while the flat handle provides a straightforward grip for positioning and adjustment. The 8" length supports access within a range of operative fields, and the 1/2" blade width offers a focused retraction profile. Suitable for professional workflows in General Surgery and Cardiovascular procedures, it can help organize exposure while allowing practical control during changing surgical requirements.

Use Cases

• Shape the malleable ribbon blade to support tissue retraction around the operative field.
• Use the flat handle to position and adjust the retractor during General Surgery procedures.
• Support access and visualization in Cardiovascular surgical workflows where a narrow ribbon-style blade is appropriate.
• Maintain a controlled retraction point when working within confined or changing operative areas.
