Darrach retractor 10 1/4"long x 1/2"wide blade, finger grip handle

Controlled Retraction with Practical Reach and Grip

The Darrach retractor is a manual surgical retractor designed to hold tissue aside and support visualization during operative exposure. Its 10 1/4-inch length provides useful reach, while the 1/2-inch-wide blade offers a focused retraction surface for controlled placement in the operative field. A finger grip handle supports direct instrument handling and repositioning during procedures. Suitable for general surgery and orthopedic applications, this retractor can help organize access and maintain a clear working area without adding unnecessary complexity to instrument handling. Its straightforward design supports familiar use across appropriate surgical workflows.

Use Cases

• Retract tissue to support operative exposure during general surgery procedures.
• Assist with maintaining a visible working area while the surgical team performs tissue handling and access tasks.
• Support orthopedic procedures where a manually positioned retractor is appropriate for localized exposure.
• Use the finger grip handle to place, adjust, and remove the retractor during an operative workflow.
• Apply the narrow blade where a focused retraction surface is preferred within the surgical field.
