Product Overview
Designed to meet the absolute physical demands of open reduction bone fixations, joint reconstructions, and large-segment trauma surgeries, the Hohmann Retractor is the gold standard for bone exposure. The instrument operates on a precise lever principle: its narrow, contoured neck fits smoothly into deep surgical windows, while the specialized beak anchors firmly onto the bone surface. These create a rock-solid, non-slip pivot point that allows assistants to easily push back massive muscle groups.
Key Features:
• Anatomical Pointed Beak: Machined to achieve a positive, non-slip lock against the bone cortex, preventing intraoperative sliding.
• Integrated Handle Holes: Select models feature dedicated weight-retention holes to anchor tracking straps or weights for assistant-free leverage.
• Ergonomic Flat Handle: Provides surgical assistants with a highly stable, secure grip to maximize manual leverage and reduce hand fatigue.
• German Stainless Steel: Forged for maximum structural rigidity under extreme loads to resist bending during repeated autoclave sterilization.
Uses & Applications:
• Total Hip & Knee Arthroplasty: Safely lever and hold back heavy gluteal, quadriceps, or hamstring muscle walls to clear the joint fields.
• Long Bone Fracture Fixation: Exposes complex femur, tibia, or humerus fracture lines before structural plate and screw attachment.
• Osteotomy & Bone Resection: Walls off posterior or collateral soft tissue borders to ensure safe, unimpeded bone cutting.
