Sklar Baby Farabeuf Retractor, Double End
A small 4-3/4 inch double ended retractor with two blade sizes, sold as a pack of two for pediatric or fine surgical retraction. It is supplied for repeated sterilization and reuse in hospital and clinic settings.
The Sklar Baby Farabeuf Retractor is a small, double ended handheld retractor measuring 4-3/4 inches, with one end sized 1 by 3/8 inches and the other 1-1/4 by 1/2 inches, giving the user two blade options on a single instrument. This retractor is sold as a pack of two, reflecting the fact that Farabeuf style retractors are almost always used in a matched pair, one held by the surgeon and one by the assistant, to hold opposite sides of a wound open.
The reduced, baby size scale makes this version suitable for pediatric surgery or for adult procedures where the incision or operative field is small and a full sized retractor would be unwieldy. Farabeuf retractors are prized for their simplicity, requiring no ratchet or locking mechanism, just steady hand pressure to maintain exposure, which makes them useful across many surgical specialties including general, plastic, and pediatric surgery.
As solid, single piece instruments, they are easy to clean and sterilize and hold up well over years of routine use.
