$299USD

The Finochietto (Modif) Rib Spreader is a streamlined thoracic instrument designed for delicate intercostal rib separation during thoracotomy.

Product Description

The Finochietto (Modif) Rib Spreader is a specialized thoracic surgical retractor engineered specifically to provide safe, gradual rib separation and chest wall exposure during anterior and lateral thoracotomy procedures. Designed with fixed fenestrated lateral blades, this modified instrument allows surgeons to apply calibrated mechanical spreading forces across delicate rib structures, preventing bone fractures while maintaining a stable, unhindered visual corridor into the pleural cavity.

Built to clinical framework specifications, this Finochietto (Modif) Rib Spreader configuration ($299) features a streamlined horizontal track frame with a flat slide rail that supports deep access manual widening up to a 120 mm maximum expansion capability. Handcrafted from premium operating room-grade German stainless steel, the blade dimensions incorporate 14 mm × 15 mm fixed curved blades contoured to rib surfaces, making them ideal for delicate bones and pediatric or slender adult thoracic cages. The rotary screw lock assembly tightening gear secures optimum surgical retraction, while two ergonomic forceps extension arms decrease user fatigue.

Forged with an anti-glare satin matte finish, Retractor Maker manufactures the Finochietto (Modif) Rib Spreader to withstand repetitive hospital sterilization cycles, providing cardiothoracic suites, trauma centers, and pediatric thoracic operating rooms worldwide with exceptional mechanical stability, corrosion resistance, and complete autoclave durability.
