The W.M. Lemmon Deaver Retractor is an extended 39.5 cm deep-cavity surgical instrument designed for major abdominal, thoracic, and pelvic visceral retraction. Handcrafted from German stainless steel with a 235 mm long working surface in 25 mm or 50 mm widths ($119), its curved hook blade delivers safe, non-traumatic visceral holding in profound surgical depths.

Product Description

The W.M. Lemmon Deaver Retractor is a premier deep-cavity surgical retractor engineered specifically to provide safe, broad-surface tissue displacement of abdominal viscera, lung lobes, and deep pelvic organs during major thoracic, laparotomy, and pelvic procedures. Designed with an elongated, sweeping curved blade, this instrument allows surgical assistants to maintain constant counter-traction across heavy visceral structures without causing localized parenchymal contusions or tears.

Built to withstand high-frequency autoclave sterilization cycles without degrading, this W.M. Lemmon Deaver Retractor configuration features an extraordinary overall tool length of 39.5 cm ($119) that provides reaching clearance into the deepest anatomical corridors. Handcrafted from premium operating room-grade German stainless steel, the active blade length measures 235 mm along its working surface. The instrument offers two selectable blade width options: a 25 mm wide blade layout for focused visceral holding and deep vascular exposure, and an expansive 50 mm wide blade layout for broad liver, splenic, or intestinal displacement. Its ergonomic flat handle delivers fatigue-free manual leverage.

Forged with an anti-glare satin matte finish, Retractor Maker produces the W.M. Lemmon Deaver Retractor to uphold strict clinical tolerances, delivering exceptional structural rigidity, corrosion resistance, and complete autoclave durability for general surgery operating theaters, trauma centers, and cardiothoracic suites worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the blade and handle design advantages of the W.M. Lemmon Deaver Retractor?

The W.M. Lemmon Deaver Retractor is a solid one-piece instrument, so its performance comes from blade geometry and handle ergonomics. The working blade is specified as 235 mm long working surface, which spreads retraction force over a wider contact area and reduces point pressure on tissue. The handle is ergonomic flat handle designed for sustained manual leverage counter-traction, giving a secure, fatigue-resistant grip through long exposures. An overall length of 39.5 cm (approx. 15.5 inches) extended reach 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 W.M. Lemmon Deaver Retractor used for?

The W.M. Lemmon Deaver Retractor is used in deep open surgery to retract large visceral organs like the liver, stomach, and intestines, providing an expansive visual corridor into profound anatomical cavities.

Which surgical procedures is it for?

It is indicated for exploratory laparotomy, thoracotomy, liver resection, open aortic aneurysm repair, pelvic exenteration, and bariatric 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.

Is the W.M. Lemmon Deaver Retractor reusable and autoclavable?

Yes. The entire W.M. Lemmon Deaver 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 width is sold as a standalone unit. Hospitals can order both sizes as open-stock inventory.

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

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