NES-2435

15.5 cm
A cross-disciplinary pattern: the Joll (Friedman) Retractor is historically associated with both thyroid and vaginal procedures, reflecting a blade shape versatile enough to serve multiple surgical contexts.
Length: 15.5cm, offering solid reach without excessive bulk.
Function: broad, controlled tissue retraction where a wide blade profile is preferred over a narrower hook or prong design.
Material: surgical-grade stainless steel, fully sterilizable.
This dual-purpose heritage is part of what makes the Joll pattern useful beyond its original applications. Its broad blade distributes retraction pressure evenly, a quality valued anywhere a stable, non-concentrated hold is needed over a wider tissue area.
Because the design favors a flatter, more even contact surface, it tends to be gentler on tissue than narrower toothed retractors, making it a sensible choice when minimizing localized pressure points matters more than maximum grip strength.
At 15.5cm, the instrument offers enough length for comfortable handling across a range of surgical fields, keeping the handle clear of the immediate operative site.
Built to withstand daily use and repeated sterilization, this retractor remains a dependable, if specialized, addition to a broader surgical instrument set.
