The Allison lung retractor is a hand-held thoracic retractor used to hold the lung gently out of the way during chest surgery. Its broad, open working end spreads pressure over a wide area, so the surgeon gets a clear view of the hilum, mediastinum or chest wall without crushing delicate lung tissue. This is the adult size.
What it is used for
- Thoracotomy and lung resection (lobectomy, wedge resection)
- Exposure of the hilum, esophagus and mediastinum
- Cardiothoracic procedures that need the lung retracted
Key details
- Pattern: Allison lung retractor
- Size: adult

- Stainless steel, reusable and autoclavable
Retractor or spatula?
