Product Description

Hohmann bone lever retractor, Hohmann-Levitre Retractor, Hohmann-Weeks Retractor

The Hohmann retractor is a surgical instrument commonly used in various medical procedures, especially in orthopedics and general surgery. It is named after the German surgeon August Karl Gustav Biermann Hohmann, who developed the instrument.

The Hohmann retractor typically consists of a long, thin, curved, or angled blade with a handle at one end. The blade is used to retract and hold back tissues, muscles, or organs during surgery, providing better visibility and access to the surgical site. The instrument's design allows it to gently lift and maintain the retracted tissues in place without causing excessive trauma.

There are different variations of the Hohmann retractor, each adapted for specific surgical procedures and anatomical locations. Common types include:

Hohmann Retractor with Rake: This type features a slightly curved blade with sharp, small teeth along its concave edge. It is useful for holding back tissues with minimal damage.

Hohmann Retractor with Sharp End: This version has a pointed tip, which makes it suitable for penetrating tissues easily and retracting them without causing unnecessary trauma.

Hohmann Retractor with Blade on Both Sides: Some retractors have blades on both sides of the instrument, allowing surgeons to retract tissues from either direction without repositioning the retractor.

Hohmann retractors are frequently utilized in orthopedic surgeries involving joints like the hip, knee, and shoulder. They are also handy in abdominal surgeries, such as appendectomies or cesarean sections, where gentle tissue retraction is essential for visualization and access.
