Tissue control and accessibility with the LANGENBECK 22 cm retractor
The Frimed LANGENBECK 22 cm retractor is an essential instrument for surgeons who need to access deep structures while keeping tissues retracted in a stable and secure manner. This manual model features a 40 x 11 mm angled blade positioned at right angles to the shaft, which is ideal for creating leverage without obstructing the view. The design of this active end allows it to slide gently under muscles or fasciae in order to spread them apart with precision, thus facilitating deep manipulation.
With a total length of 22 cm, this retractor is suitable for use in medium to deep cavities. The straight, rigid shaft is extended by an open handle that provides an excellent grip, even when wearing surgical gloves. The entire unit is designed for prolonged use without excessive fatigue, making it a popular tool in visceral surgery, orthopaedics and traumatology.
Made from surgical-grade stainless steel, this retractor is fully compatible with standard sterilisation protocols, including autoclaving. Its solid construction ensures high durability, while remaining easy to handle and reliable in everyday use. It is fully reusable, making it economically advantageous for hospital settings.
