The FK Retractor (Feyh-Kastenbauer) is a premier trans-oral operative frame designed for Trans-Oral Robotic Surgery (TORS), laser surgery, and microsurgery of the upper aerodigestive tract. Engineered with Weinstein-O’Malley modular blades, smoke evacuation channels, and dental protection, it provides superior exposure of the pharynx and larynx.

Product Description

The FK Retractor (Feyh-Kastenbauer) is an internationally recognized trans-oral operative platform engineered to provide optimal visualization and surgical access to the tongue base, hypopharynx, supraglottis, and larynx. Optimized for Trans-Oral Robotic Surgery (TORS) as well as endolaryngeal laser microsurgery, this system establishes an expansive, unyielding visual corridor that accommodates robotic arms and microscopic visualization without tissue obstruction.

Engineered around the FK-WO TORS basic frame, this complete FK Retractor (Feyh-Kastenbauer) set features specialized mounting adapters for grasping forceps or suction tubes, light cable clips, curved cheek retractors, a dedicated 4.0 × 170 mm smoke suction tube, and 10 latex-free dental protectors. The blade assembly provides unmatched clinical flexibility, incorporating an 11 cm mandible blade, a 17 cm concave laryngeal blade, standard and open-sided curved tongue blades, and bilateral Weinstein-O’Malley TORS blades.

Supplied in a custom-formed heavy-duty sterilization box, Retractor Maker manufactures the FK Retractor (Feyh-Kastenbauer) from high-grade biocompatible stainless steel and specialized alloys, delivering dependable stability and surgeon-focused ergonomics directly to otolaryngology departments worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in the complete FK Retractor (Feyh-Kastenbauer) set?

The full set includes the FK-WO TORS frame with mounting adapters, auxiliary instrument clamp, light clip, 2 curved cheek retractors, smoke evacuation tube (4.0 × 170 mm), 10 latex-free teeth protectors, 11 cm mandible blade, 17 cm concave laryngeal blade, 3 curved tongue blades (closed, right-open, left-open), 5 Weinstein-O’Malley TORS blades, and a fitted sterilization box.

What is the FK Retractor (Feyh-Kastenbauer) used for?

The FK Retractor (Feyh-Kastenbauer) is a specialized trans-oral retractor designed to provide wide, hands-free exposure of the oropharynx, base of tongue, and supraglottic structures. It creates a rigid visual and operative field necessary for robotic surgical arms, microscopic line-of-sight, and endolaryngeal instrumentation.

Which surgical procedures is it for?

This retractor is specifically indicated for Trans-Oral Robotic Surgery (TORS), trans-oral laser microsurgery (TLM), resection of base-of-tongue neoplasms, radical tonsillectomy, supraglottic partial laryngectomy, and surgical management of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

What material and finish are used?

All frame assemblies and modular blades are manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel and lightweight high-strength alloys treated with a non-reflective, anti-glare satin finish to safeguard against laser beam scattering. Dental guards are molded from medical-grade, latex-free polymer.

Is it reusable and autoclavable?

Yes. All metal frame components, adapters, blades, and the sterilization box of the FK Retractor (Feyh-Kastenbauer) are fully reusable and autoclavable (steam autoclave at 134°C / 273°F). The dental teeth protectors are disposable/single-patient items and must not be autoclaved.

Can components and blades be ordered separately?

Yes. Individual components—including replacement Weinstein-O’Malley blades, left/right open tongue blades, suction adapters, additional teeth protector packs, and frame locking joints—can be ordered as individual catalog parts.

Can custom blade dimensions or private-label markings be ordered?

Yes. Retractor Maker provides OEM manufacturing, bespoke blade modifications for pediatric or bariatric oral anatomies, and custom laser-marking for hospital asset identification upon request.

What is the standard lead time and delivery timeframe for orders?

For in-stock instruments, orders take 5 business days to process and inspect, followed by 7 business days for worldwide delivery. For back-order or custom-manufactured systems, production takes 17 to 20 business days, followed by 9 business days for delivery. Full tracking details are supplied upon dispatch.
