Femoral/Gluteus Medius Minimus Retractor 11.75″ Blade Width 20mm

The Femoral/Gluteus Medius Minimus Retractor 11.75″ (29.8cm) Blade Width 20mm is a precision-engineered surgical retractor used primarily in orthopedic and hip resurfacing procedures. Its refined design provides optimal exposure of the femoral and gluteal regions, enabling surgeons to perform accurate and controlled dissection or implant placement.

Manufactured from German stainless steel, this instrument offers exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and surgical precision. The narrow 20mm blade is ideal for working in confined spaces where precision and minimal trauma are critical.

Clinical Applications

This retractor is an essential tool in orthopedic and reconstructive surgeries involving:

• Hip arthroplasty and resurfacing

• Gluteus medius and minimus exposure

• Femoral shaft and acetabular retraction

• Minimally invasive hip replacement procedures

• Soft tissue mobilization around the femoral head

Its slender blade enables controlled retraction of deep tissues, ensuring unobstructed access and improved visualization of the operative field.

Design Advantages

• Slim 20mm Blade Width: Allows precise, minimally invasive retraction.

• Extended 11.75” Length: Reaches deep surgical sites efficiently.

• Ergonomic Handle Design: Provides superior grip and surgeon comfort during lengthy procedures.

• High-Grade German Stainless Steel: Ensures strength, resistance to wear, and ease of sterilization.

• Satin-Finished Surface: Reduces glare from operating lights for better visibility.

• Balanced Weight Distribution: Offers stable, controlled handling with minimal fatigue.

Each design element is crafted to deliver safety, precision, and surgeon comfort in complex hip and gluteal surgeries.

Technical Specifications

Comparison with Similar Instruments

Compared to standard hip retractors, the Femoral/Gluteus Medius Minimus Retractor features a narrower 20mm blade that ensures targeted retraction. Unlike larger or flat-blade retractors, it minimizes the risk of soft tissue compression while offering excellent control. Its length (11.75”) provides deep access, making it superior in procedures where precision and reach are both essential.

Care & Maintenance

To maintain optimal performance:

1. Rinse immediately after use to remove blood and debris.

2. Clean with a neutral-pH detergent using a soft brush.

3. Rinse with distilled water and dry thoroughly.

4. Inspect for any damage or wear before sterilization.

5. Sterilize using an autoclave at standard medical parameters.

6. Store in a clean, dry environment.

Following these steps preserves the instrument’s integrity and ensures longevity.
