Hargis Ramus Retractor, Left, 19.5cm — Overview

The Hargis Ramus Retractor, Left (S27-112-19) is a 19.5cm retractor shaped specifically for the left mandibular ramus, part of the Hargis maxillofacial instrument family, used to hold soft tissue clear during ramus-focused mandibular surgery on that side.

Ramus-Specific, Left-Side Shaping

The mandibular ramus — the vertical portion of the lower jaw leading up to the jaw joint and coronoid process — requires retraction shaped to its specific contour, distinct from the mandibular body retraction elsewhere in the Hargis family. This left-side version is specifically angled and shaped for that side of the mandible, typically paired with the matching right-side version for bilateral procedures.

Clinical Use

This retractor is used in orthognathic surgery, particularly sagittal split ramus osteotomy and other procedures focused on the mandibular ramus, on the left side specifically.

Material and Construction

Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel and hand-finished in Sialkot, Pakistan, with a smooth, atraumatic working blade shaped for the ramus contour.

Sterilization and Care

Fully autoclavable and intended for repeated reuse. Routine inspection for surface damage or deformation is standard practice.
