Description
Rosh Tech Finochietto Rib Retractor/Contractor – 3/4″ x 3/4″ Blades, 3 1/4″ Spread, Premium Quality Stainless Steel
The Rosh Tech Finochietto Rib Retractor/Contractor is a specialized surgical instrument used in thoracic procedures to retract and spread ribs, providing access to the chest cavity. The blades measure 3/4″ in width and 3/4″ in depth, making it suitable for smaller patients, likely infants or small children. The 3 1/4″ spread indicates the maximum distance the retractor arms can be opened, providing the necessary exposure for delicate procedures in this patient group. Crafted from premium quality stainless steel, this retractor ensures the strength, durability, and corrosion resistance required for pediatric surgery.
It’s important to note the dual designation “Retractor/Contractor.” While Finochietto retractors primarily function to spread ribs, this instrument might have a design that allows for controlled approximation as well, though its main function with the described dimensions would be retraction.
