Its also known as Allison Retractor is a handheld, non-ratcheted retractor used for holding lung tissue. It has a solid handle with a finger rest at the bottom and a flattened wire spatula shaped working surface. The wires are flexible and extend downward slightly away from the handle before slightly curving upwards again. The instrument resembles a flattened kitchen whisk. This product is straight with a 40mm retracting surface, and a length of 255 mm.
The Allison Lung Spatulas 255 mm by SMS Instruments are specially designed thoracic surgical tools used to gently retract the lung lobes during open chest surgeries. Commonly referred to as the “lung fan” retractor, this instrument ensures broad, atraumatic exposure of the thoracic cavity while preserving the integrity of delicate lung tissue.
Measuring 255 mm in length, the SMS Allison Lung Spatula features a wide, fan-shaped wire blade that distributes pressure evenly across the lung surface. This design reduces the risk of tissue damage, bruising, or compression injury—making it the preferred retractor in thoracotomy, cardiac surgery, pulmonary lobectomy, and lung biopsy procedures.
The long, slightly curved handle allows for deep insertion and manipulation within the thoracic cavity while maintaining a safe distance from surrounding anatomical structures. Surgeons rely on the Allison Spatula for its ability to maintain clear visibility of the heart, mediastinum, and lungs, particularly in open thoracic access or cardiopulmonary operations.
Manufactured from CE-certified surgical-grade stainless steel, this retractor is autoclavable, rust-resistant, and built for durability in high-demand surgical settings. Its smooth contours and polished finish ensure minimal friction and easy tissue interaction.
As part of the Hooks and Retractors product line from NAZMED SMS SDN BHD, the SMS Allison Lung Spatulas 255 mm reflect our commitment to offering precision-crafted, safe, and globally trusted surgical instruments for use in cardiothoracic and general surgery.
