Reichert Epiglottis Retractor 24cm – Galaxy-View Tissue Anchor & Sentinel-Guard Airway Shield

Solid-Phase Reichert Epiglottis Retractor (24cm) for Deep Laryngeal Exposure

The Reichert Epiglottis Retractor 24cm is a cornerstone of the professional otolaryngology toolkit, specifically engineered for the stable displacement of the epiglottis during indirect or direct laryngoscopy. Functioning as a high-performance tissue anchor, this 24cm model features an elongated, slender shaft that allows for deep reach into the hypopharynx while keeping the clinician’s hand clear of the operative view. Adas Instruments ensures that each airway shield is balanced for center-point force transmission, providing the tactile sensitivity needed to retract the delicate epiglottic cartilage without causing mucosal trauma. By utilizing the Reichert Epiglottis Retractor 24cm, practitioners benefit from a galaxy-view perspective of the vocal cords and glottis, which is essential for both diagnostic biopsies and complex airway reconstructions. We ship USA, Europe & worldwide via DHL, FedEx, and UPS to deliver German steel instruments that professionals trust for their mechanical precision and structural resilience.
