Description
The Middeldorpf Retractor 22x20mm is a finely crafted surgical instrument used primarily for soft tissue retraction in minor and moderately invasive procedures. Widely utilized in ENT, dental, plastic, and general surgeries, this retractor is designed to hold back tissues such as skin, mucosa, and muscle to provide clear visualization and improved access to the surgical site.
This specific variant features a blade size of 22x20mm, which offers precise, localized retraction while minimizing unnecessary pressure or trauma to surrounding tissues. The compact blade size makes it especially useful in procedures involving confined anatomical areas, such as the oral cavity, nasal region, or small incisions in facial and reconstructive surgery.
The retraction blade is typically blunt and smooth, allowing it to securely hold soft tissue without tearing or causing injury. Its angled or curved design helps maintain a consistent hold on tissue planes, even in curved or narrow spaces. This ensures that the surgeon has a stable and unobstructed view throughout the procedure.
The Middeldorpf Retractor is constructed from high-grade surgical stainless steel, providing exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and full compatibility with autoclave sterilization. Its smooth finish and precisely machined edges allow for easy insertion, cleaning, and long-term clinical use.
The instrument’s handle is ergonomically designed for a comfortable grip and secure control, enabling the surgeon or assistant to retract tissue with minimal effort and hand fatigue. The lightweight yet rigid build provides the necessary strength for effective retraction without compromising delicacy.
