Farabeuf Double-Ended Retractor — 150 mm (15 cm)

Farabeuf Double-Ended Retractor — 150 mm (15 cm) (Ref RT 11-595-01), supplied from Fizza Surgical’s instrument range under ISO 13485:2016 quality management.

Louis Hubert Farabeuf, a nineteenth-century French anatomist and surgeon, lent his name to the simple double-ended hand retractor that remains a workhorse of general and orthopaedic surgery. Farabeuf retractors are sold in pairs — a left and right with identical curved blades on each end of a flat handle. Sizes are described by blade length: 12 cm, 14 cm, 15 cm. An assistant holds the retractor to expose superficial tissues during wound exploration, hernia repair, vascular access, and orthopaedic open reduction. The Farabeuf’s elegance is its simplicity: no ratchets, no springs, no moving parts to fail. Just two ergonomic blades on a sturdy stainless handle that outlasts most other instruments in the tray.

Sialkot has been the world’s primary cluster for surgical-instrument manufacturing since the late nineteenth century, when local steel workshops began supplying instruments to British military and civilian hospitals. Fizza Surgical’s facility continues that tradition, combining workshop craftsmanship with the metallurgy and quality systems modern medical regulation requires. Fizza products are exhibited at international medical-device trade fairs in Europe, the Middle East, and North America.
