The Gelpi retractor is a self-retaining tissue retraction for use during surgical procedures.

• Self-retaining retractor provides consistent tension and leaves your hands free
• Ratchet locking mechanism to easily adjust the size of the opening
• Sharp, hooked tips for a sure grip with minimal tissue trauma
• Surgical grade stainless steel

Self-retaining retractors remain in place once they are positioned, freeing your hands. The retractor has two sharp, hooked ends that are used to grasp and retract tissue. This double-ended design allows for versatility in retraction and enables the surgeon to adjust the retractor as needed during the procedure.

Gelpi Retractors have a ratchet mechanism that allows you to adjust the distance between the two ends to accommodate different tissue thicknesses and provides better control over the retraction. The retractor has fine, pointed tips for precise tissue manipulation with minimal tissue trauma. The sharp tips ensure a secure grip of the tissue without causing excessive damage or slippage.

Choose a shorter retractor for a shallower or smaller incision. The longer retractors work better for deeper surgical sites, for access to posterior structures, for larger incisions, or for obese patients. These Gelpi Retractors are manufactured from surgical grade stainless steel, which is autoclavable.
