- The HOHMANN retractor is available in a variety of sizes and its use significantly improves visualisation of the caudal aspect of the mensici
- The tip of the retractor is placed on the proximal caudal edge of the tibia and the femoral intercondylar notch is used as a fulcrum to cranially lever the tibia with respect to the femur
- It can also be useful to help reconstruct fractured long bones by manipulating fracture segments into anatomical alignment for fixation
*There is no substitute for a Hohmann retractor.
