FRITSCH RETRACTOR WIDTH SERRATED HANDLE FIG-5 65MM X 85MM 24,0CM

FRITSCH RETRACTOR WITH FENESTRATED HANDLE • FIG-5 • 65MM X 85MM • 24.0CM • CE CLASS I • ISO 13485:2016

Maximum-Format Flat Retractor with Super Fenestrated Handle for Definitive Retraction of Massive Tissue Structures

The FRITSCH RETRACTOR with fenestrated handle, Figure 5, is a CE Class I medical device manufactured according to ISO 13485:2016. This instrument in maximum format with the extraordinary blade dimensions of 65 mm x 85 mm represents the definitive version of the classical Fritsch series. It is specifically designed for the powerful, controlled, and broad retraction of the most massive, deep-lying tissue during the largest surgical approaches, as encountered in visceral, orthopedic, and trauma surgery.

Product Highlights:

✔ Certified according to ISO 13485:2016
✔ CE marking Class I (Regulation (EU) 2017/745 MDR)
✔ Maximum format "Figure 5" as the largest standard version
✔ Super fenestrated handle with reinforced struts for ergonomic force transmission under extreme load
✔ Exceptional blade dimensions: 65 mm width, 85 mm depth – for extremely large tissue volumes
✔ Fully rounded, high-gloss polished edges for maximum tissue protection
✔ High-quality surgical stainless steel in an extra-stable version – rust-proof and biocompatible
✔ Optimal length of 24.0 cm for powerful leverage in depth
✔ Autoclavable and designed for long-term, intensive use in maximum care hospitals

Benefits of the Fritsch Retractor (Fig-5 with Fenestrated Handle):

• Definitive Tissue Control: The 85 mm deep and 65 mm wide blade provides an unrivalled contact surface to securely and stably hold aside even the largest muscle packages or organs.
• Ergonomics Under Maximum Load: The specially reinforced fenestrated handle allows for fatigue-free and secure handling even during maximum exertion over long surgical phases.
• Highest Stability: The construction is designed for maximum load capacity to resist deformation even under extreme traction.
• Atraumatic Premium Finish: High-gloss polished surface and carefully rounded edges minimize tissue trauma and facilitate gliding.
• Ultimate Instrument for Maximum Approaches: The standard instrument of choice for the largest and deepest open surgical approaches, where all smaller retractors reach their limits.

Areas of Application:

• Maximum retraction in extensive laparotomies and major visceral surgical procedures (e.g., liver resections, Whipple procedures)
• Large-volume orthopedic and trauma surgical approaches (e.g., to spine, pelvis, hip)
• Comprehensive urological and gynecological tumor resections
• Major vascular surgical reconstructions and trauma care
• Extensive reconstructive procedures in plastic surgery

Important Safety and Handling Instructions:

• FOR USE BY HIGHLY EXPERIENCED SURGICAL PERSONNEL IN MAXIMUM CARE CENTERS ONLY.
• Due to its weight and extreme leverage, special practice in handling is required.
• Use under strict aseptic conditions only.
• Perform an intensive visual inspection for material fatigue, micro-cracks, or minimal bends BEFORE EACH use (mandatory).
• The enormous leverage requires utmost dosage of force application. Uncontrolled traction can lead to severe tissue or nerve damage.
• Special caution and precise knowledge of anatomy are essential due to the large, visually obstructing blade area.
• Reprocessing must follow guidelines for large-surface instruments; special attention to cleaning the entire surface and the fenestrated handle is required.
• Suitable padding for gentle storage and transport is recommended to avoid deformation of the large blade.
