• Reduces the need for multiple assistants during retraction.

• Maintains tissue integrity with minimized trauma.

• Enhances surgeon efficiency and accuracy.

• Long-lasting performance ensures dependable use in demanding surgical settings.

Comparison with Similar Instruments

While standard Hohmann retractors offer general retraction, the Wide Hohmann Retractor stands out with its 45mm single prong blade, allowing greater tissue control and improved access in deep hip and lower limb surgeries. Compared to double-prong models, Wide Hohmann Retractor offers better maneuverability in confined areas and is easier to position during exposure.

Care & Maintenance

To preserve instrument performance:

• Clean immediately after use to remove blood and debris.

• Use neutral pH enzymatic detergents for washing.
