Ultra-Long Maximum Retractor for Definitive Exposure in the Deepest Thoracic and Abdominal Spaces
The DEAVER RETRACTOR with the ultimate standard dimensions of 25 mm width and 30.0 cm length is a CE Class I medical device manufactured according to ISO 13485:2016. This maximum version defines the limits of manual deep retraction and is designed for the definitive, stable, and precise exposure of structures in the deepest and most difficult-to-access anatomical spaces, such as the posterior mediastinum, retrohepatic area, or the deep lesser pelvis during complex re-operations. It offers unparalleled reach and control.
Product Highlights:
✔ Certified according to ISO 13485:2016
✔ CE marking Class I (Regulation (EU) 2017/745 MDR)
✔ Maximum standard width (25 mm) for the most stable hold
✔ Ultra-long standard length (30 cm) for reach into the deepest body cavities
✔ Characteristically strongly curved, robust tip for secure grasping of the deepest target structures
✔ Enables definitive and controlled retraction under extreme conditions
✔ Fully rounded, high-gloss polished edges for maximum atraumatic quality
✔ High-quality surgical stainless steel in an extra-stable, length-optimized grade
✔ Very long, robust handle for optimal leverage and fine adjustment in depth
✔ Autoclavable and designed for the most complex procedures in maximum care surgery
Benefits of the Deaver Retractor (25 mm, 30 cm):
• Definitive Reach and Depth Control: The 30 cm length enables reaching and holding structures that are not safely accessible with shorter standard instruments, such as the distal thoracic aorta or deep pelvic wall structures.
• Instrument for Experts in Maximum and Revision Approaches: Indispensable for extensive oncological resections in the mediastinum, reconstructive vascular procedures on the abdominal aorta, and complex urological or gynecological re-operations with extensive adhesions.
• Stability Over Extreme Distances: The construction is designed for dimensional stability along the entire length to prevent bending and thus uncontrolled holding.
• Maximum Patient Safety Through Precision: Enables extremely precise and measured retraction even at great depth to spare critical adjacent structures.
• Efficiency in Depth: Reduces the need for additional, deeper-placed retractors and optimizes access for the surgeon.
Technical Specifications:
• Model: Deaver Retractor, Ultra-Long Maximum Version
• Overall Length: 30.0 cm
• Blade Width: 25 mm
• Blade Shape: Ultra-long, with a maximally strong, characteristic curve (often >90°) at the tip
• Handle Form: Very long, solid, and ergonomic handle
• Material: High-quality surgical stainless steel (e.g., 1.4301 / 316L in high-load quality)
• Surface: High-gloss polished (mirror finish) for best gliding
• Special Feature: Longest and most stable standard version for ultimate depth effect
• Risk Class: I according to Regulation (EU) 2017/745 MDR
Areas of Application:
• Definitive exposure in extensive thoracic and thoraco-abdominal tumor resections (esophagus, distal aorta)
• Complex reconstructive vascular surgery on the abdominal aorta and iliac vessels
• Maximum approaches in urology and gynecology in morbid obesity or after previous surgeries
• Challenging spinal approaches (e.g., ventral approaches to the lumbar spine)
Important Safety and Handling Instructions:
• FOR USE BY HIGHLY SPECIALIZED AND EXPERIENCED SURGICAL PERSONNEL ONLY.
• Use under strict aseptic conditions only.
• Perform an intensive visual inspection for material fatigue, especially at the strong bend and along the long shaft, BEFORE EACH USE.
• The extreme length creates immense leverage with high torque. Utmost dosage, control, and an absolutely tactile approach are essential to avoid severe injuries to deep, often non-visible structures.
• Exercise special caution when placing near the aorta, vena cava, esophagus, ureters, or nerve plexuses.
• Reprocessing requires thorough cleaning of the entire ultra-long, curved construction.
