Tuppers Hand Retractor Set – Ball Chains and Skin Hooks

Hand surgery has a problem no other field has: the thing being operated on is also the thing that must not move, and it has fifteen joints that all can. Under a microscope that matters more again — at magnification, movement the surgeon would not notice with the naked eye takes the field out of focus entirely.

The set addresses it by fixing the hand in whatever position the procedure needs rather than one fixed posture. Hooks engage the skin, ball chains of different lengths run from those hooks to the holder, and the chain length chosen sets how far each finger is drawn. Changing position means moving a chain, not repositioning the whole hand — so the surgeon adjusts the exposure without releasing anything already set.
