Product Overview
Designed to accommodate the precise anatomical contours of the wrist, the Distal Radius Wide Hohmann Retractor 5.37" optimizes bone exposure during complex volar or dorsal plating. The extra-wide 25mm blade safely retracts and protects vital soft tissues, including the pronator quadratus muscle and adjacent tendons, distributing levering pressure evenly to prevent localized ischemia. Its tapered, blunt tip seats securely against the cortical rim of the radius, creating an immovable mechanical lever for the surgical team.
Key Features:
• Wide 25mm Blade: Designed to provide expansive soft tissue protection over a broader surface area.
• 5.37" Ergo Handle: Perfectly counterbalanced to provide maximum levering torque with minimal hand fatigue.
• Anatomical Tapered Tip: Seats smoothly against the bone cortex without slipping or stripping periosteum.
• German Steel: Forged for extreme structural rigidity and lifetime autoclave durability.
Uses & Applications:
• Distal Radius Volar Plating: Safely lever flexor tendons and muscles away to expose the radius shaft.
• Wrist Arthrodesis: Provides wide, clear visibility of the carpal-radial joint during fusion procedures.
• Forefoot Reconstruction: Utilized as a broad tissue lever in heavy-duty midfoot and hindfoot surgeries.
