Hohmann Retractor

The Hohmann Retractor is a solid one-piece instrument, so its performance comes from blade geometry and handle ergonomics. The working blade is specified as 15 mm wide ($74.00) or 17 mm wide ($79.00), which spreads retraction force over a wider contact area and reduces point pressure on tissue. The handle is heavy-duty ergonomic flat handle designed for sustained leverage counter-traction, giving a secure, fatigue-resistant grip through long exposures. An overall length of 12 inches (30.48 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 Retractor is used in orthopedic surgery to hook behind bone margins and lever heavy muscle and capsular tissues aside, exposing the bone for reaming, plating, or joint replacement.

It is indicated for Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA), Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA), femoral and tibial fracture open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), and pelvic osteotomies.

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 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 blade width is sold as a standalone unit. Hospitals can order both 15 mm and 17 mm models as open-stock inventory.
