Reverse Hohmann Retractor

The Reverse Hohmann Retractor is a solid one-piece instrument, so its performance comes from blade geometry and handle ergonomics. The working blade is specified as Asymmetric right-angled blade terminated with smooth blunt prongs, which spreads retraction force over a wider contact area and reduces point pressure on tissue. The handle is fenestrated grip framework integrated into a single-ended chassis to minimize weight, giving a secure, fatigue-resistant grip through long exposures. An overall length of 8 ½ inches (21.59 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.

The Reverse Hohmann Retractor is used in orthopedic surgery to seat behind bone cortices and lever muscles away using an inverted blade angle, providing joint visualization without crowding surgical instruments.

It is indicated for Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA), Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA), acetabular fracture fixation, tibial plateau exposure, and femoral osteotomies.

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.
