Gerbault-Tebbetts Suction Retractor 18cm

The Gerbault-Tebbetts Suction Retractor from Delta Med Surgical is the definitive tool for "Open" and "Closed" rhinoplasty techniques. Merging a high-leverage retractor with a precision suction port allows the surgeon to perform osteotomies and dorsal hump reductions while simultaneously removing bone dust, blood, and surgical plume. This "two-in-one" functionality reduces the need for multiple instruments in the narrow nasal corridor.

Key Performance Features

Integrated Suction Channel: The suction tube is seamlessly built into the spine of the retractor, terminating near the distal tip. This ensures that fluid is evacuated at the exact point of dissection, keeping the surgical site crystal clear.

Tebbetts-Style Ergonomics: Featuring the iconic "S-curve" and a balanced 18cm (approx. 7") length, this retractor provides superior leverage for elevating the nasal skin envelope or sub-periosteal flaps with minimal effort.

Atraumatic Blade Tip: The distal end is meticulously hand-polished to a smooth, rounded finish. This prevents the "tearing" or "button-holing" of thin nasal skin, which is critical in primary and secondary rhinoplasty.

Non-Slip Handle: The handle is ergonomically fluted to provide the surgical assistant with a secure, fatigue-free grip, even during lengthy reconstructive cases.

The Delta Med Surgical Quality Standard

Forged from Premium Operating Room Grade German Stainless Steel, this retractor is built for high-frequency clinical use. The internal suction lumen is electropolished to prevent protein buildup, ensuring the instrument remains easy to clean and fully autoclavable (134°C). Our instruments are CE, ISO 13485, and FDA certified.
