Maximum Exposure & Reliability for Laparotomy Procedures
The Balfour Abdominal Retractor is a cornerstone instrument for general, gynecological, and urological surgeries. Engineered to provide expansive, self-retaining exposure of the abdominal cavity, this retractor features a robust frame with lateral wire blades and a customizable center blade (bladder blade).
Manufactured from high-tensile AISI-304/420 Stainless Steel, the Balfour system is designed for heavy-duty retraction while ensuring patient safety through smooth, rounded contours.
