Features and Description:
Senn-Mueller Retractor | Sharp & Blunt | 7×8 mm & 18×6 mm Dual Blade Ends | 16 cm (6¼”)
A surgical classic refined for precision and versatility, the Senn-Mueller Retractor combines the trusted Senn double-ended design with the Mueller retractor tradition to deliver exceptional tissue exposure across a wide range of surgical applications. Available in both sharp and blunt tip configurations, each instrument features two distinct blade ends — 7×8 mm and 18×6 mm — within a single elegant 16 cm (6¼”) instrument, providing surgeons with four functional retraction surfaces across just two instruments.
Key Features:
- Sharp & Blunt Tip Options – Sharp prongs for firm tissue grip and penetration; blunt ends for delicate or sensitive tissue handling, accommodating diverse surgical requirements
- Dual Blade End Design – 7×8 mm rake end and 18×6 mm flat blade end in a single instrument, maximizing intraoperative versatility and reducing instrument tray count
- 16 cm (6¼”) Instrument Length – Versatile mid-length design providing excellent reach and control for both superficial and moderately deep wound retraction
- Comprehensive Tissue Coverage – The narrow 7×8 mm rake end suits fine, targeted retraction while the broader 18×6 mm blade end accommodates wider wound exposure needs
- Smooth Transition Between Ends – Ergonomically designed central handle allows effortless switching between blade ends during the procedure
- Atraumatic Blunt Option – Blunt variant blade ends carefully contoured to minimize trauma to surrounding neurovascular and soft tissue structures
- Premium Stainless Steel Construction – Fully autoclave compatible for repeated high-temperature sterilization and outstanding long-term instrument durability
- Combined Senn-Mueller Design Heritage – Merges two respected surgical retractor traditions into one precise, reliable, and widely trusted double-ended instrument
