Our Weitlaner Retractors have sharp, hooked prongs that securely grip tissues, muscles, and organs to allow easier access to the surgical site, particularly during orthopedic surgery. The retractor's ratchet lock mechanism ensures its tips stay securely in place once they are adjusted, which prevents slippage, while the hooked prongs allow precise manipulation and minimal tissue trauma.

Yes, the sharp variant stays locked in place once positioned through its ratchet lock mechanism, so the surgeon's hands remain free during the entire procedure. The cam ratchet system secures the finger rings and holds tissue separation without requiring continuous manual pressure or assistance from staff.

Sharp prongs grip firmer tissues like muscle and fibrous structures with excellent holding power and reduce slippage during longer procedures. Blunt prongs, meanwhile, minimize trauma to delicate or superficial tissues such as skin and fascia, making them gentler for sensitive anatomical areas.

Yes, the sharp-pronged design excels in reaching challenging depths and is specifically engineered for deep, small incisions requiring soft tissue dissection at various levels. Surgeons rely on these instruments in orthopedic procedures, neurosurgical cases, and spinal operations where extended reach and solid grip prevent accidental slippage in confined spaces.

The original Weitlaner features straight prongs, while the West variant incorporates curved prongs that conform better to patient anatomy. This curvature allows the West model to position itself more smoothly on tissue surfaces without distorting the surgical site or causing unwanted tissue bunching.

Completely reusable these instruments withstand repeated sterilization cycles and maintain precision for years with correct maintenance. Made from surgical-grade stainless steel, they resist corrosion and remain functional after hundreds of autoclave procedures when handled carefully and inspected regularly.

Clean thoroughly with water and neutral soap before disinfection, then steam autoclave at 121°C (250°F) for 30 minutes or use flash sterilization at 132°C (270°F) for 3-10 minutes depending on your facility's protocol. Always dry completely after cleaning, apply protective oil to joints before sterilization, avoid abrasive brushes or metal tools, and ensure proper wrapping for effective steam penetration never exceed 280°F to protect handles and mechanisms.
