Product Overview
Designed to overcome the line-of-sight and clearance limitations of standard straight retractors, the Hohmann Retractor Angled provides superior field visibility in deep musculoskeletal corridors. The distinctive bent shaft geometry allows the instrument to wrap around prominent bony landmarks or dense muscle masses, positioning the handle away from the active wound corridor. Operating on a robust mechanical lever principle, its narrow neck drops effortlessly into tight joints, while the specialized tip configuration anchors firmly against the bone cortex to establish a positive, non-slip pivot point.
Key Features:
• Non-Slip Cortical Anchoring: Designed to bite securely into the bone surface, resisting rotational torque under intense manual pressure.
• Ergonomic Leverage Handle: Crafted to distribute heavy manual loads evenly, maximizing mechanical torque and reducing assistant hand fatigue.
• German Stainless Steel: Forged for absolute structural rigidity under maximum loads, ensuring lifetime autoclave durability.
Uses & Applications:
• Total Hip & Knee Arthroplasty: Leverages back high-tension capsular flaps and deep muscle walls around hidden articular margins.
• Complex Long Bone Traumas: Exposes deep femur, tibia, or pelvic fractures where standard straight instrumentation blocks surgical access.
• Revision Joint Reconstruction: Navigates around existing orthopedic hardware or thick arthrofibrotic scar tissue to clear the operative site.
