Kolbel Shoulder Retractor Frame

The Kolbel Shoulder Retractor Frame is a solid one-piece instrument, so its performance comes from blade geometry and handle ergonomics. The working blade is specified as Equipped with a system of free-moving pivoting arms to accept modular blades, which spreads retraction force over a wider contact area and reduces point pressure on tissue. An overall length of 23 cm (9 inches) keeps the surgeon's hand clear of the operative field. It is made from premium surgical-grade german stainless steel (aisi 304/420) for glare-free, corrosion-resistant service.

The Kolbel Shoulder Retractor Frame is used in shoulder surgery to mount modular blades, providing hands-free, multi-planar retraction of the deltoid and pectoral muscles to expose the humeral head and glenoid cavity.

It is indicated for anatomical Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (TSA), Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty (rTSA), shoulder hemiarthroplasty, and complex proximal humerus fracture fixation.

The instrument is handcrafted from premium German surgical stainless steel with an anti-glare satin matte finish that eliminates optical reflections under surgical operating lights.
