Distal Radius Wide Hohmann Retractor 5.37" Blade 25mm

SKU: G32-2030
Availability: In Stock

The Distal Radius Wide Hohmann Retractor 5.37" is designed to assist in retraction and exposure of distal radius and diaphyseal fractures. It’s ergonomically designed to safely access surgical sites with its wide blades and curved handle. The wide blade not only ensures optimal retraction but also protects the surrounding tissues from damage and trauma.

Hohmann Retractors

Our medical-grade Distal Radius Wide Hohmann Retractor 5.37" features two precision-crafted blades that safely glide down the bones. Both prongs feature blunt tips that ensure minimal trauma to the targeted bone. In addition to that, the instrument is easy to hold and manage. 
Key Benefits:
•    Medical-Grade Material: Made from surgical-grade stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance.
•    Ergonomic Design: The angled shaft and ergonomic handle ensure a comfortable and secure grip for the surgeon. 
•    Wide Blade for Optimal Access: The wide blade design allows for greater bone exposure, improving surgical precision.
 

Hold the handle firmly with your dominant hand and slide the curved blade gently around the bone, keeping the tip against the cortex to protect soft tissue. Use steady, controlled pressure rather than force to maintain exposure without causing trauma. Always position it so the blade hugs the bone surface, giving your surgical team a clear, stable working field.

The 25mm blade width is specifically designed to match the anatomy of the distal radius, providing just enough coverage to retract surrounding tissue without overcrowding the small surgical space. It gives surgeons optimal visibility while protecting nearby tendons, nerves, and vessels. This targeted width reduces the risk of collateral tissue damage compared to wider general-purpose blades.

Unlike standard Hohmann retractors built for larger joints like the hip or knee, this Beard version is purpose-built for the wrist area, featuring a narrower blade and refined curve that suits the compact distal radius anatomy. The design gives surgeons better control in tight spaces where a standard retractor would feel bulky. It essentially does the same job but with far greater precision for wrist and forearm procedures.

The 5.37" length keeps the surgeon's hand comfortably outside the incision while the blade reaches deep into the wound. It provides the perfect balance between reach and tactile control during distal radius procedures. This means less instrument crowding and smoother, more confident movements throughout the surgery.

Avoid applying too much levering force, as this can crack fragile bone or tear delicate soft tissue around the wrist. Never leave the blade loosely placed without solid bone contact, since it can slip and cause unintended injury. Always confirm the retractor is properly seated before retracting, and briefly release pressure now and then to restore normal blood flow.
