SELF RETAINING RETRACTORS
These retractors have at least two blades joined by a bar
or a hinge joint.
It is thus possible to create lateral pressure against both
margins of the wound.
This pressure helps to retain the retractor in the wound
for the entire duration of the operation.
The pressure is constant and adjustable.
Both hands of the assistant are thus free for other tasks
in the procedure.
The retractors in use are:
Travers
Norfolk
Balfour
Jolls
Alms
