OBWEGESER RETRACTOR • STRAIGHT • 10x45MM • 24.0 CM • CE CLASS I • ISO 13485:2016

Straight Midfacial Retractor for Stable Soft Tissue Exposure

The OBWEGESER Retractor straight, 10x45mm, 24.0 cm is a Class I medical device according to ISO 13485:2016. This specialized straight retractor with its tall, narrow blade form is a standard instrument in oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS) as well as in plastic facial surgery. It was designed for precise and stable retraction of soft tissues in the midface, orbital, and nasal regions.

Advantages of the Straight Retractor:

• Precise Deep Retraction: The tall, narrow blade enables reaching and retracting deep-seated structures in the midface and periorbital area
• Stable Exposure: Provides reliable holding of soft tissues during osteotomies, fracture treatments, and reconstructive procedures
• Versatile Application: Ideal for rhinoplasty, orbital surgery, zygomatic repositioning, and maxillary sinus access
• Minimal Visual Obstruction: The narrow design hardly blocks the surgical field
• Ergonomic Handling: The straight form allows direct force transmission and good control
