Description:
This specialized Weitlaner Retractor is designed with modifications suited to orthopedic and neurosurgical procedures. In orthopedic surgery, its longer arms and robust prongs allow for retraction of muscle and fascia during joint reconstruction, fracture repair, and spinal procedures. In neurosurgery, the precision prong design ensures atraumatic handling of delicate tissues while still maintaining a wide operative field for access to the brain or spinal cord. Available in multiple prong configurations (3×4, 4×5, etc.), sharp prongs are typically preferred in orthopedics for firm grip, while blunt versions are favored in neurosurgery to minimize tissue trauma. The versatility of this variant makes it a staple in both fields where exposure of deep anatomical layers is essential.
