KOCHER RETRACTOR HOLLOW BENT • 80MM X 50MM • 25.0CM • CE CLASS I • ISO 13485:2016

Extra-Deep Hollow Bent Retractor for Maximum Sharp Deep Tissue Retraction

The KOCHER RETRACTOR hollow bent with dimensions of 80 mm x 50 mm is a CE Class I medical device manufactured according to ISO 13485:2016. This particularly deep and robust version of the classical sharp hook is specifically designed for demanding retraction and mobilization of massive, deep-lying, or difficult-to-grasp tissue. The extreme hollow bend of 50 mm depth offers unparalleled visibility and access in deep surgical sites.

Benefits of the Kocher Retractor (80x50 mm, hollow bent):

• Maximum Depth Effect: The 50 mm deep blade allows for grasping and controlled retraction of tissue at extraordinary depths where standard instruments no longer reach.
• Excellent Overview: The deep hollow shape provides a nearly unobstructed view of the underlying operative area, increasing precision.
• Secure Handling Under Full Load: The robust construction reliably and precisely transmits force even under high exertion.
• Specialized Instrument for Difficult Access: Ideal for deep visceral, orthopedic, or urological procedures with limited visibility.
• Durability and Precision: Manufactured for long-term use under demanding conditions.

Areas of Application:

• Maximum retraction in deep abdominal surgical procedures (e.g., in pelvic surgery, rectal surgery)
• Orthopedic and trauma surgical approaches with extremely deep surgical sites (e.g., deep hip approaches, spinal surgery)
• Urological procedures such as radical prostatectomies or nephrectomies
• Extensive tumor resections in depth
• Mobilization and retraction of deep-lying, hard-to-reach, or scarred tissue structures

Important Safety Instructions:

• FOR USE BY HIGHLY EXPERIENCED SURGICAL PERSONNEL ONLY.
• Use under aseptic conditions only.
• SPECIAL CAUTION: The instrument is single-ended sharp and has great leverage. Utmost care is required to avoid injuries. Safe placement ("Do not hand over, put it down!") is mandatory.
• Inspect for sharpness, cracks, or deformations, especially in the area of the strong bend, before each use.
• Proceed with utmost dosage and control due to the depth effect. Reckless movement can lead to severe injuries to deep-lying structures.
• When reusing, strictly adhere to valid reprocessing guidelines for surgical instruments. Cleaning the deep hollow shape requires particular care.
