Retractors - Self Retaining

Retractors - Self Retaining Instruments

gSource self-retaining retractors are crafted from high quality German or U.S. surgical stainless steel. Most retractor handles have either ratchets or speedlocks which, when set, will hold the open position of the working ends in order to retract, expose or hold back tissue, muscle, organs or bone during general or orthopedic procedures. Small retractors are generally used to hold back skin and tissue. Larger retractors are used mainly to retract the muscles, organs and bones.

Self-Retaining Retractors From gSource

Used in countless applications for many years, retractors are vital instruments for performing internal surgeries. Medical personnel use them to hold body parts out of the way so that the surgeon can have a clear view and work cleanly. A self-retaining retractor uses ratchets, screws or clamps to hold the tissue open by itself without the need for an assistant to hold it.

We stock a wide range of these instruments, suitable for many surgical uses. Explore our list of retractors below:

Adson Retractors

Adson-type retractors provide a non-traumatic way to pry and keep open large incisions for a range of surgical procedures. Surgeons use them most frequently for general and neurological applications. Types include the following:

  • Adson cerebellar: Made from German surgical stainless steel, this instrument is used during intracranial procedures to retract the cerebellum. It has sharp prongs for precise control.
  • Adson retractor: Available in angled, straight, blunt and sharp varieties, these German stainless steel retractors are perfect for general procedures like pulling muscles back in spinal surgeries.

Alm Retractors

Available in sharp or blunt varieties and manufactured from German surgical stainless steel, alm retractors are suitable for holding back soft tissues of a small area in general procedures. They are especially popular with veterinarians.

Bailey Retractors

Manufacturers make this retractor for pulling back ribs to ensure proper line of sight and easy suturing during operations. It has a moveable blade with a ratchet for careful rib movement.

Balfour Retractors

Balfour retractors are available in various sizes and come with a central blade — we also offer one for pediatric use. Surgeons use these retractors in urological, gynecological and general surgeries to pull back tissues and organs and increase the surgical field view. The central blade variety is beneficial in abdominal cavity surgical procedures.

Beckman Retractors

These self-retaining retractors have many surgical benefits. Surgeons find them especially useful in hip and spinal cord surgeries for holding back heavy muscles. They come in different sizes and can be sharp or blunt. Big or small, they are excellent at holding back tissues and muscles during procedures.

We offer Beckman, Beckman-Adson and Beckman-Eaton retractors with sharp or blunt teeth and in many sizes, so you can find one that perfectly suits your needs.
