Hurd Surgical Retractor 22.5 cm (9)

Hurd Surgical Retractor — 22.5 cm (9 in)

The Hurd Surgical Retractor is a handheld, single-ended instrument used to hold back tissue and maintain a clear operative field during general, gynecologic, and plastic surgery procedures. At 22.5 cm (9 in), it offers a balanced reach for superficial to moderately deep exposures in the operating room, ambulatory surgery center, or clinic. Its curved, blunt blade gently retracts skin, muscle, and subcutaneous tissue while minimizing trauma to surrounding structures. The ergonomic handle supports a secure grip and controlled leverage, helping surgeons and assistants keep the field stable without constant repositioning. This retractor is a practical addition to any general surgery catalog and is suitable for routine and specialized soft-tissue procedures where reliable, atraumatic retraction is needed.

• General surgery: retracting skin, fascia, and muscle edges to expose the operative site.
• Gynecologic procedures: holding back tissue during vaginal or abdominal approaches.
• Plastic and reconstructive surgery: maintaining clear access to soft-tissue planes.
• Ambulatory surgery centers: a versatile retractor for routine minor and major cases.
• Clinic-based procedures: minor excisions and wound management where controlled retraction is required.
