Bellucci-Wullstein self-retaining retractor 5 2 blunt prongs on right shaft 13.0mm long, solid 10.0mm x 20mm blade on left shaft 45.0mm spread ring handle with ratchet catch

Controlled Retraction with Practical Access and Secure Handling

The Bellucci-Wullstein self-retaining retractor is designed to hold tissue aside during surgical exposure, helping maintain a stable working field without requiring continuous manual retraction. Its 45.0mm spread ring handle with ratchet catch supports controlled positioning, while the two blunt prongs and solid blade provide distinct contact profiles for positioning at the operative site. The 5" instrument combines a 13.0mm-long right shaft with a 10.0mm x 20mm blade on the left shaft, offering a compact configuration for focused access. It is suited to handling requirements encountered in ENT and general surgery workflows.

Use Cases

• Maintain retraction during ENT procedures where a compact, self-retaining instrument is appropriate.
• Support exposure tasks in general surgery by holding tissue away from the working area.
• Use the blunt prongs for controlled positioning where a blunt retraction profile is preferred.
• Engage the ratchet catch to retain the selected spread while attention is directed to other surgical tasks.
• Use the ring handle to adjust and manage the retractor during placement and removal.

Specifications

Care & Handling
