The Sauerbruch Retractor is a 9″ (22.86 cm) deep-cavity surgical instrument designed for muscular and wound margin retraction during thoracic and abdominal surgery.

Product Description
The Sauerbruch Retractor is an internationally recognized deep-cavity surgical retractor engineered specifically to provide reliable, atraumatic soft-tissue displacement and muscular retraction during thoracic, abdominal, and orthopedic procedures. Designed with an elongated right-angled blade, this instrument allows surgical assistants to maintain constant counter-traction on dense muscle bellies, fascial layers, and visceral walls without slipping into the operative field.
Built to withstand frequent autoclave sterilization cycles while providing a lifetime warranty against rust and defects, this Sauerbruch Retractor features a fixed longitudinal frame of 9 inches (22.86 cm, $69). Handcrafted from premium operating room-grade German stainless steel, the instrument offers four distinct blade size dimensions selectable from the option parameter menu: ⅝″ × 1 ¾″, 2 ⅛″ × ⅞″, ⅞″ × 2 ½″, and ¾″ × 2 ⅞″ wide right-angle blade layouts. The smooth, rounded blade margins prevent localized ischemic pressure trauma, while the ergonomic flat handle provides fatigue-free manual leverage.
Forged with an anti-glare satin matte finish, Retractor Maker manufactures the Sauerbruch Retractor to withstand heavy mechanical loads and repeated hospital sterilization cycles, delivering high corrosion resistance, unyielding structural rigidity, and complete autoclave durability for general, thoracic, and trauma operating theaters worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the blade and handle design advantages of the Sauerbruch Retractor?
The Sauerbruch Retractor is a solid one-piece instrument, so its performance comes from blade geometry and handle ergonomics. The working blade is specified as ⅝″ × 1 ¾″, 2 ⅛″ × ⅞″, ⅞″ × 2 ½″, ¾″ × 2 ⅞″ (Length × Width), which spreads retraction force over a wider contact area and reduces point pressure on tissue. The handle is ergonomic flat handle with lateral serrations for tactile grip stability, giving a secure, fatigue-resistant grip through long exposures. An overall length of 9 inches (22.86 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 Sauerbruch Retractor used for?
The Sauerbruch Retractor is used in open surgery to retract thick muscle layers, ribs, and fascial planes, providing a wide, unobstructed visual corridor into deep body cavities.
Which surgical procedures is it for?
It is indicated for thoracotomy, rib resection, exploratory laparotomy, appendectomy, hernia repair, and deep orthopedic trauma surgery.
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.

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