The Langenbeck is the standard hand-held retractor for wound edges and superficial tissue layers. Its right-angled blade holds tissue back with an even pull, and the open, fenestrated handle gives a secure grip for the assistant over long periods. A choice of blade sizes matches the retractor to the incision.
