Hohmann Posterior Inferior Retractor

The Hohmann Posterior Inferior Retractor is a solid one-piece instrument, so its performance comes from blade geometry and handle ergonomics. The working blade is specified as Curved blade layout equipped with uniquely shaped dual-prongs and a sharp curved edge, which spreads retraction force over a wider contact area and reduces point pressure on tissue. The handle is left handle to bend #7 or medium right handle to bend #7, giving a secure, fatigue-resistant grip through long exposures. An overall length of 11 inches (27.94 cm) keeps the surgeon's hand clear of the operative field. It is made from surgical-grade stainless steel (aisi 304/420) for glare-free, corrosion-resistant service.

The Hohmann Posterior Inferior Retractor is used in hip replacement surgery to hook behind the posterior-inferior acetabular rim, levering capsule and muscle away to expose the acetabulum for reaming and cup insertion.

It is indicated for primary Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) via posterior or lateral approaches, revision hip arthroplasty, acetabular fracture repair, and posterior hip dislocation reduction.

The instrument is forged from high-tensile surgical stainless steel with an anti-glare satin matte finish that eliminates optical reflections under surgical operating lights.

Yes. The entire Hohmann Posterior Inferior Retractor is 100% reusable and fully validated for pre-vacuum steam autoclave cycles (134°C / 273°F).

Because this is a solid, one-piece forged retractor, each handle configuration is sold as a standalone unit. Hospitals typically order paired sets (Left and Right) to complete hip replacement trays.

Yes. Retractor Maker provides custom prong spacings, modified bend angles, and laser marking for hospital asset tracking upon request.
