The Broad Acetabular Retractor 12.5″, Double Prongs, 40mm is an advanced surgical instrument engineered for hip arthroplasty and acetabular exposure. Its combination of a broad 40mm blade and double-prong support provides surgeons with stable retraction of the acetabular rim while minimizing tissue damage. This ensures better visualization, smoother implant placement, and safer surgical outcomes.
Built from German stainless steel and certified under ISO 9001, ISO 13485, and CE standards, the instrument reflects precision, durability, and clinical reliability.
