Solid-Phase Petri-Pterygoid Retractor with Integrated Fiber Optic Illumination
The Petri-Pterygoid Intra-Oral Retractor is an elite instrument for complex orthognathic and trauma surgery, specifically engineered for the stable displacement of tissues at the posterior maxillary border. Functioning as a high-performance pterygoid anchor, this model features a built-in fiber optic light guide that delivers cold, intense light directly to the surgical site. Adas Instruments ensures that each Vision-Shift shield is balanced for center-point force transmission, allowing the surgeon to visualize the pterygoid plates without the need for external headlamps or overhead light adjustment. We ship USA, Europe & worldwide via DHL, FedEx, and UPS to deliver German steel instruments that surgeons trust for their technical innovation and structural resilience.
Why Maxillofacial Specialists Choose Our Fiber Optic Petri-Pterygoid Retractor
- Luma-Sync Illumination: Features a universal fiber optic connector to act as a versatile pterygoid anchor, providing shadow-free visibility of the descending palatine artery and pterygoid plates.
- Vision-Shift Stability: Specifically designed with a reinforced handle and anatomical blade curve to function as a reliable deep-field shield, protecting the soft palate and pharyngeal tissues.
- Cold-Light Safety: The integrated light carrier is designed to transmit high-intensity light without heat buildup, preventing thermal trauma to delicate mucosal surfaces.
- Enduro-Steel Resilience: Forged from high-tempered surgical stainless steel and compatible with standard fiber optic cables used in modern operating rooms.
Primary Surgical Applications
- Visualizing the pterygomaxillary junction during Le Fort I, II, and III osteotomies.
- utilizing the pterygoid anchor function for the safe release of the maxilla from the pterygoid plates.
- Performing efficient Vision-Shift shield maneuvers during tumor resections in the infratemporal fossa.
- Exposing the posterior maxilla for complex orthognathic plating and fixation.
