Description

BusinessMed® Weitlaner Self-Retaining Retractor opens like scissors and locks on its ratchet, so the prongs keep the wound edges apart without an assistant holding them; at 11.5 cm it is the small Weitlaner size used for shallow incisions.

What is a Weitlaner retractor used for?

  • Plastic and general surgery: holding skin and subcutaneous tissue apart in short, shallow incisions.
  • Orthopedic, spinal and neurological surgery: hands-free exposure of small fields over bone, joints and the spine.

Choosing prongs and arms

Sharp prongs grip skin edges firmly; blunt prongs rest against tissue near vessels and nerves. More prongs (3 × 4) spread the hold along a longer edge, fewer (2 × 2) fit the shortest incisions. Curved arms angle the handles away from the wound to keep them out of the field.
