High-Stability Deep Retractor for Controlling Massive Soft Tissue Masses in Thoracic, Abdominal and Orthopedic Major Surgery
The SAUERBRUCH RETRACTOR 130 mm x 38 mm / 25.0 cm is a Class I medical device manufactured according to ISO 13485:2016. This particularly long and wide retractor is a high-performance instrument specifically developed for the powerful and stable retraction of large muscle and soft tissue masses in extremely deep or extensive surgical approaches. Its robust design makes it indispensable for procedures where conventional retractors reach their limits.
Product Highlights:
✔ Manufactured in accordance with ISO 13485:2016
✔ CE Marked – Class I (Regulation (EU) 2017/745 – MDR)
✔ Extra-long and wide blade (130 mm x 38 mm) for deepest access and maximum control over large tissue volumes
✔ Optimal overall length of 25.0 cm for excellent leverage and precise guidance
✔ High-quality, solid and reinforced surgical stainless steel – crafted for maximum load capacity and long-term stability
✔ Atraumatic, fully rounded blade edges and a blunt, safe tip to protect underlying structures
✔ Reinforced blade-shaft junction with double material thickness to prevent bending under extreme load
✔ Ergonomic, large and closed finger ring for a secure, powerful grip even with surgical gloves
✔ Matte, anti-reflective surface for optimal visibility in depth
✔ Sterilizable and designed for repeated use in the most demanding procedures
Benefits of the Sauerbruch Retractor:
• Unparalleled Deep Retraction: The 130 mm blade length allows reaching and securely holding tissue in the deepest layers during thoracic, abdominal, or dorsal spinal approaches.
• Excellent Control Over Large Soft Tissue Areas: The 38 mm blade width provides a large contact area to effectively and gently retract extensive muscle groups (e.g., erector spinae, major pectoral muscle, abdominal wall).
• Maximum Stability Under Load: The reinforced design ensures shape stability even under high retraction forces and prevents bending or twisting of the instrument.
• Reduces Assistant Need: Due to its size and stability, this retractor can often replace multiple standard instruments, simplifying workflow and improving overview.
• Versatile Use in Major Surgery: A key instrument for demanding procedures in thoracic surgery, visceral oncology, orthopedic tumor surgery, and complex spinal surgery.
Technical Specifications:

• Risk Class: I according to Regulation (EU) 2017/745 (MDR)
Areas of Application:
• Thoracic Surgery (e.g., extended lobectomies, pleurectomies)
• Visceral Major Surgery and Oncology (e.g., gastrectomies, liver resections, cystectomies)
• Orthopedic Tumor Surgery and Revision Arthroplasty of Hip and Pelvis
• Dorsal Spinal Surgery for Extensive Deformities or Tumors
• Trauma Surgical Management of Complex Pelvic and Acetabular Fractures
Important Safety and Handling Information:
• FOR USE BY EXPERIENCED SURGEONS IN MAJOR AND SPECIALIZED SURGERY ONLY.
• Conscious Dosing of Force: Despite the robust construction, retraction force must be applied in a dosed and controlled manner to avoid excessive tissue stretching or compression of neurovascular structures.
• Placement Under Direct Vision: The long blade requires precise placement under visual control to avoid unintentionally injuring or compressing deep anatomical structures.
• Inspection for Structural Integrity: Before each use, inspect for deformations, cracks, or material fatigue, especially at the heavily stressed blade-shaft junction.
• Thorough Cleaning and Sterilization: Due to the length, a suitable, large sterilization tray is required. The blade should be thoroughly cleaned after use to remove tissue residues.
