Benefits of the Collin-Hartmann Retractor:

• Precise Holding and Exposure: Ideal for grasping and tensioning fascial edges, skin flaps, small vessels, or nerves during microsurgical dissection.
• Minimally Invasive Application: The slender shaft and fine tip enable precise work through small incisions, e.g., in hand surgery, vascular surgery, or aesthetic surgery.
• Versatile Basic Instrument: An indispensable instrument in the basic set for a wide range of disciplines, from general surgery to plastic reconstruction.
• Reduced Tissue Trauma: The sharp but fine tip minimizes the required force and thus the crushing or stretching trauma to the held tissue.
• Optimal Ergonomics: Excellent balance and grip allow fatigue-free work even during lengthy dissections.

• Dermatological Surgery (excisions)
• Gynecological and urological microsurgical procedures

Important Safety and Handling Information:

• FOR USE BY SURGICAL PROFESSIONALS ONLY.
• Targeted Application: The sharp tip is intended solely for holding and retracting tissue. Do not use as a dissecting instrument (e.g., as a knife substitute).
• Caution Near Sensitive Structures: Exercise particular care near nerves, vessels, or hollow organs to avoid perforations.
• Visual Inspection of the Tip: Before each use, inspect the fine tip for damage, blunting, or bending. A damaged tip can tear tissue.
• Thorough Cleaning: Clean the fine tip thoroughly of tissue residues after use.
