Designed for pediatric thoracic and general surgical procedures. This instrument features swivel (rotating) blades, allowing the surgeon to adjust blade orientation intraoperatively to improve exposure while minimizing tissue trauma. Manufactured under the Millennium® brand by Avalign Technologies, Inc., the retractor is intended for reusable, prescription‑use applications and is commonly employed in procedures requiring controlled rib or soft‑tissue retraction in small anatomical spaces. The swiveling blade design enhances adaptability and visualization during surgery while maintaining consistent retraction force.
