The Ranawat Knee Retractor is a 9 ½″ (24.13 cm) orthopedic instrument designed for collateral ligament and joint capsule retraction during total knee arthroplasty. Handcrafted from German stainless steel with a 17 mm wide × 34 mm long 90-degree angled working end in Blunt or Sharp tips ($79), it delivers superior non-slip bone purchase.

Product Description

The Ranawat Knee Retractor is a specialized orthopedic surgical instrument engineered specifically to provide dependable bone leverage and soft-tissue displacement during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and complex knee reconstructions. Designed to drop behind the tibial plateau and collateral ligaments, this retractor allows surgical teams to hold back heavy capsular and ligamentous structures cleanly away from oscillating bone saws and reamers.

Built with a highly durable and corrosion-resistant chassis, this Ranawat Knee Retractor configuration features an overall tool length of 9 ½ inches (24.13 cm, $79). Handcrafted from premium operating room-grade German stainless steel, its working tip dimensions measure 17 mm wide × 34 mm long. The tip profile geometry incorporates an integrated 90-degree angled working end available in two distinct typologies selectable from the option menu: a Blunt tip engineered for gentle, atraumatic retraction of vascularly sensitive soft tissues, or a Sharp tip engineered to provide a highly secure, non-slip purchase on tough ligamentous structures and cortical bone. The heavy-duty handle delivers fatigue-free manual leverage for operating assistants.

Forged with an anti-glare satin matte finish, Retractor Maker manufactures the Ranawat Knee Retractor to withstand heavy orthopedic torque and repeated hospital autoclave cycles, providing knee arthroplasty centers and orthopedic trauma surgical suites worldwide with exceptional mechanical stability, corrosion resistance, and complete clinical durability.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the blade and handle design advantages of the Ranawat Knee Retractor?

The Ranawat Knee Retractor is a solid one-piece instrument, so its performance comes from blade geometry and handle ergonomics. The working blade is specified as 17 mm wide × 34 mm long, 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 9 ½ inches (24.13 cm) keeps the surgeon's hand clear of the operative field. It is made from premium operating room-grade german stainless steel (aisi 304/420) for glare-free, corrosion-resistant service.

What is the Ranawat Knee Retractor used for?

The Ranawat Knee Retractor is used in total knee replacement surgery to seat against the bone cortex and lever collateral ligaments and capsule away, exposing the tibial plateau and femoral condyles for bone resection.

Which surgical procedures is it for?

It is indicated for primary Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA), unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA), revision knee reconstruction, and tibial osteotomies.

What material and finish are used?

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.

Is the Ranawat Knee Retractor reusable and autoclavable?

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

Can components and blades be ordered separately?

Because this is a solid, one-piece handheld instrument, each tip variant is sold as a standalone unit. Hospitals can order both blunt and sharp models as open-stock inventory.

Can custom modifications or private-label markings be ordered?

Yes. Retractor Maker provides custom blade widths, modified angle depths, and laser marking for hospital asset tracking upon request.

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

In-stock instruments take 5 business days to inspect and dispatch, followed by 7 business days for worldwide express delivery. Back-order units take 17 to 20 business days to manufacture and 9 business days for delivery.
