The Symmetry 24-2216 is a professional-grade manual surgical instrument expertly engineered to provide hands-free, self-retaining soft tissue retraction across medium-depth surgical fields during general orthopedic, vascular, and spinal procedures. This Weitlaner-pattern instrument utilizes an automatic, spring-loaded cam-locking ratchet mechanism along the handles to hold the retraction arms open at any precise, custom width. The active working tips feature a 3 x 4 interlocking prong layout armed with sharp tips that securely grip deep fascial layers and muscle tissue margins, preventing slippage or wound closure while maintaining a clear surgical corridor.
