Wide, Flat Deep Retractor for Large-Area Exposure in Vascular and Visceral Surgery
The KELLY RETRACTOR is a CE Class I medical device manufactured according to ISO 13485:2016. This wide, flat, and slightly concave retractor with dimensions of 160 mm x 38 mm is a classical instrument for the large-area, deep, and gentle retraction of soft tissue, particularly in vascular surgical procedures or for exposing deep visceral structures. Its long, flat design provides excellent overview.
Product Highlights:
✔ Certified according to ISO 13485:2016
✔ CE marking Class I (Regulation (EU) 2017/745 MDR)
✔ Very wide, flat blade (160 mm) for maximum exposure
✔ Flat construction (38 mm high) for deep access with minimal obstruction
✔ Long standard length (27 cm) for excellent reach and leverage in depth
✔ Slightly concave shaped blade for better adaptation to tissue contours
✔ Fully rounded and polished edges for highest atraumatic quality
✔ High-quality surgical stainless steel – rust-proof and biocompatible
✔ Ergonomic, long handle for secure handling even with both hands
✔ Autoclavable and reusable
Benefits of the Kelly Retractor:
• Optimal Deep Tissue Exposure: The long, flat design penetrates deeply to expose underlying structures (such as major vessels, nerves, or organs) without taking up much space itself.
• Broad Retraction: Ideal for securely and evenly holding aside larger tissue areas (e.g., muscle layers, adipose tissue).
• Versatile Standard Instrument: A fundamental retraction instrument in vascular surgery, general surgery, and orthopedics.
• Atraumatic Safety: The carefully rounded edges protect sensitive structures from injury.
• Good Handling: Enables the surgeon or assistant to provide stable and controlled retraction even during lengthy procedures.
