Volkmann Hand Held Retractor MB-VHHR-2301

This is a surgical instrument called a bone hook.

• It is made of stainless steel.
• It has a long, thin handle with a loop at the end.
• The working end of the hook has a series of teeth for gripping bone.
• This instrument is used to manipulate bone during surgery.
• The pictured instrument is a Fusion Kraft Volkmann/Israel Rake Retractor, featuring 4 blunt prongs and an 8.75-inch length. It is a handheld surgical instrument commonly used in small bone and joint procedures to retract tissue. The prongs can be sharp or blunt, with the choice depending on the surgical site and tissue type. This particular retractor has blunt prongs, which may be preferred for retracting thicker dermis to minimize tissue damage. The handle includes a fenestration (opening) in a teardrop design. Due to its length, it is particularly useful for retracting muscle or organs located deeper within the body.
