Classical Wide Abdominal Wall Retractor for the First Retraction Layer in Laparotomy Approaches
The MIKULICZ RETRACTOR is a CE Class I medical device manufactured according to ISO 13485:2016. This classical, wide, and deeply curved retractor with dimensions of 90 mm x 50 mm is specifically designed for the first, broad, and gentle retraction of the abdominal wall and superficial tissue layers during the opening of the abdomen (laparotomy). It is a standard instrument for initial access in general and visceral surgery.
Product Highlights:

✔ Wide, deeply curved blade (90 mm) for large-area contact with the abdominal wall
✔ High side wall (50 mm) for secure hold and deep retraction
✔ Optimal length (26 cm) for good leverage and comfortable handling
✔ Deep U-shaped, atraumatic construction with rounded ends
✔ Fully rounded and polished edges for highest tissue protection
✔ High-quality surgical stainless steel – rust-proof and biocompatible
✔ Solid, ergonomic handle for secure and fatigue-free work
✔ Autoklavable and reusable
Benefits of the Mikulicz Retractor:
• Ideal Initial Access: Perfectly shaped to securely and evenly hold back the entire thickness of the abdominal wall (skin, subcutaneous tissue, anterior rectus sheath) during opening.
• Broad and Gentle: Distributes retraction pressure over a large area, minimizing the risk of tissue trauma or pressure necrosis at the wound edges.
• Depth and Visibility: The deep curvature allows for good tissue grasping while providing an excellent view of the underlying fascia and next layer.
• Timeless Standard: A proven and indispensable basic instrument for generations in every surgical set for laparotomies.
• Easy Handling: Enables the assistant to provide stable and controlled retraction.
