Deaver Retractor Surgical Instrument 2.5 Inch

The Deaver's Retractor is a hand-held retractor, made of stainless steel with a curved retractable blade and a flat handle.  It is used to keep the abdominal wall in place during abdominal or thoracic surgeries. It can also be utilised to transport or keep organs away from the surgical site. 

The width of the retracting blade is the same as the width of the handle. The handle is slightly curved to prevent the hand clutching the retractor from slipping.

The Deaver retractor resembles a question mark and has a thin, flat blade.
