KOCHER-LANGENBECK RETRACTOR • 70MM X 14MM • 21.5 CM • CE-CLASS I • ISO 13485:2016

Super-Mega Combination Retractor for Ultimate Area Control in Maximum-Exposure Surgery

The KOCHER-LANGENBECK RETRACTOR 70mm x 14mm is a CE-Class I medical device manufactured according to ISO 13485:2016. This super-mega variant redefines the boundaries of conventional retraction and is designed for those exceedingly rare, highly complex procedures where maximum tissue exposure alongside supreme structural stability is indispensable. Featuring the largest blade ever available in this instrument class, it offers an unprecedented combination of surface area effect and depth penetration.

Product Highlights:

✔ Certified according to ISO 13485:2016
✔ CE Marking Class I (Regulation (EU) 2017/745)
✔ Super-Mega Variant – the dimensional limit variant
✔ Maximally dimensioned Langenbeck blade (70x14mm) for ultimate retraction
✔ Super-reinforced 2- to 3-toothed Kocher blade for absolute hold under extreme load
✔ Highest-strength surgical stainless steel 1.4441 – optimized for maximum bending and torsional strength
✔ Tested Biocompatibility according to ISO 10993
✔ Special deep-drawn forged construction with integrated reinforcement rib along the central axis
✔ Length of 21.5 cm for deepest work with maximum surface effect
✔ Sterilizable and reusable

Advantages of the Kocher-Langenbeck Retractor (70x14mm):

• Definitive Area Control: The 70 mm wide and 14 mm tall blade provides the ultimate retraction surface for exposing entire anatomical regions.
• Unparalleled Exposure: Enables simultaneous retraction of multiple tissue layers, creating an almost panoramic visual field.
• Critical Redundancy: Serves as a primary retraction system for procedures where conventional retractor systems would fail.
• Surgical Efficiency: Can often replace the use of several separate retractors, simplifying OR management during extreme exposure.
• Engineering Masterpiece: Despite extreme dimensions, controllable through precise material distribution and ergonomic handle design.

Technical Specifications:

• Blade Shape: Asymmetric – one side maximum width and height, one side multi-toothed and extremely solid
• Handle: Wide, deeply profiled power grip with bilateral safety indentations for two-handed guidance
• Surface: High-gloss polished with matte grip zones for optimal cleanability and haptics
• Special Feature: Ultimate specialty instrument for the most demanding exposure scenarios in modern surgery.
• Risk Class: I according to Regulation (EU) 2017/745 (MDR)

Exclusive Fields of Application (Highly Specialized):

• Hyper-Complex Visceral Surgery: Exstirpation of giant retroperitoneal tumors, multivisceral transplantations, complete intestinal mobilization.
• Maximally Invasive Orthopedics: En-bloc resections of pelvic tumors, complete spinal exposure during correction osteotomies.
• Polytrauma Surgery (Damage Control): Simultaneous exposure of thorax and abdomen in life-threatening injuries.
• Revisional Plastic Surgery: Complete reconstruction after massive burns or trauma with extensive tissue loss.
• Experimental & Protocol Surgery: For specific research or training purposes requiring maximum demonstrative capability.

Critical Warning and Application Notes (ABSOLUTE):

• FOR DESIGNATED EXPERTS WITH SPECIFIC EXPERIENCE IN HANDLING MEGA-INSTRUMENTS ONLY. Strictly contraindicated for personnel not specifically trained.
• Kocher blade poses an extremely high perforation risk: Application exclusively under direct vision on the most massive fascial or osseous structures. Any contact with organ parenchyma, vessels, or nerves is a preventable malpractice.
• Triple Safety Check Required: 1. Visual instrument inspection, 2. Tactile tissue check before application, 3. Assistant-confirmed positioning.
• Respect Physical Limits: The extreme leverage can lead to catastrophic tissue lesions if misapplied. Always work with supportive counter-traction from a second force (assistant or fixation).
• Mandatory two-/multi-handed guidance. Single-handed use is prohibited.
• Microscopic crack testing (if available) recommended before and after each use. Standard sterilization cycles may cause material fatigue at this scale.
• Not designed for routine use. Specifically for defined high-risk situations where the benefit clearly outweighs the inherent risk.
