Description

The Kolbel Tissue & Muscle Spreader is a self-retaining surgical instrument designed to provide controlled tissue and muscle retraction during orthopedic, spinal, trauma, and general surgical procedures. Its specialized design allows surgeons to create and maintain a clear operative field while minimizing tissue trauma and reducing the need for continuous manual retraction.

The instrument features opposing single blunt prongs that provide secure yet atraumatic engagement of tissue and muscle layers. The blunt-prong design helps reduce unnecessary tissue damage while maintaining effective retraction throughout the procedure. The integrated ratchet locking mechanism allows precise adjustment and maintains consistent tissue separation, helping improve surgical efficiency and visualization.

With an overall length of 18 cm (7″), the Kolbel Tissue & Muscle Spreader offers an excellent balance of reach, control, and maneuverability. It is available in two distinct patterns to accommodate different surgical requirements. The straight pattern is well suited for direct tissue retraction and standard surgical approaches, while the angled pattern provides improved access and visibility when working around anatomical structures or within confined operative fields.

Available in both straight and angled single blunt-prong configurations, the Kolbel Tissue & Muscle Spreader allows surgeons to select the most appropriate design for the procedure being performed. Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, every Kolbel Tissue & Muscle Spreader undergoes stringent quality control inspection to ensure durability, corrosion resistance, and dependable long-term performance.
