Haberer Malleable Spatula Flexible Abdominal Retractor
Features and Description:
The Haberer Malleable Spatula is a specialized tool that surgeons use to move and protect large organs during abdominal surgery. These spatulas are unique because they feature a wide, “ribbon” design that you can bend by hand. Therefore, you can shape the instrument to match the patient’s body perfectly. Because it offers such flexibility, it is a favorite for deep cavity procedures.
We manufacture these Haberer spatulas from high-quality, flexible stainless steel. As a result, they provide enough strength to hold back heavy tissue while remaining very easy to adjust.
Key Benefits of the Haberer Spatula
- Tapered Design: First, each spatula features two different widths at the ends. This allows the surgeon to switch between sizes depending on the surgical needs.
- Safe Retraction: Furthermore, we polish the edges to a smooth, rounded finish. Consequently, the tool protects delicate tissues from accidental cuts or trauma.
- Superior Length: Since these spatulas measure up to 30 cm, they provide an excellent reach for deep-seated organs.
- Glare-Free Surface: Additionally, we apply a satin finish to the steel. This prevents annoying light reflections, which helps the surgical team see clearly.
- Durable and Reusable: Finally, the medical-grade steel resists corrosion. You can safely autoclave the tool many times without damaging its flexibility.

Many surgeons use the Haberer Spatula in general and visceral surgery. For example, it is perfect for retracting the liver or the stomach during abdominal exploration.
