The Senn Miller Catpaw Retractor, also known as the Senn-Mueller Retractor, is a double-ended surgical instrument commonly used in procedures requiring the retraction of surface tissues. Its design features two distinct ends:

• L-Shaped Blade: One end has a flat, smooth blade, typically measuring approximately 10mm x 9mm.

• Three-Pronged Rake: The opposite end consists of three prongs, which can be either sharp or blunt, measuring about 10mm x 11mm.

Key Features:

• Length: Commonly available in lengths of 16 cm (6.5 inches) and 20 cm.

• Material: Constructed from high-quality stainless steel, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion.

• Functionality: Ideal for retracting skin and delicate tissues in small surgical sites, such as in plastic surgery, hand and foot surgeries, and minor procedures involving superficial tissue layers.

• Design: The double-ended feature provides versatility, allowing surgeons to choose between the flat blade for broader retraction and the pronged end for more focused retraction.
