Product Overview
Designed to withstand the continuous physical tension required during knee reconstruction and total joint replacement, the Utility Knee Retractor 9" optimizes soft tissue clearance while minimizing the risk of localized trauma. The 14mm blade profile is designed to slide smoothly behind the tibial plateau or around the femoral condyles, safely walling off sensitive collateral ligaments and the patellar tendon. By distributing leverage forces evenly across its polished surface, it prevents muscle bruising and ischemia, providing the surgical team with a stable, high-visibility field for performing flawless bone resections.
Key Features:
• 9-Inch Extended Frame: Provides surgical assistants with excellent mechanical leverage while keeping hands clear of the field.
• 14mm Mid-Range Blade: Tailored perfectly for maneuvering inside tight, high-tension joint corridors
• German Stainless Steel: Forged for absolute structural rigidity and lifetime autoclave durability.
Uses & Applications:
• Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA): Retracts and protects the medial or lateral collateral ligaments during femoral cutting block alignment.
• Tibial Plateau Exposure: Safely lever the anterior structures forward to allow clean visualization of the proximal tibia shaft.
• Knee Revision Procedures: Effectively reflects dense arthrofibrotic scar tissue to clear the operative field around old implants.
