Spine Retractor
A spine retractor is a surgical instrument used during spinal surgery to hold back tissues and provide clear access to the spine. It helps to stabilize and separate muscles, ligaments, and other structures, allowing the surgeon to work more effectively in a limited space. There are various types of spine retractors, including fixed and adjustable models, designed to accommodate different surgical approaches and patient anatomies. Proper use of a spine retractor is crucial for minimizing tissue damage and ensuring optimal surgical outcomes.

Types of Spine Retractors
- Self-Retaining Retractors: These have mechanisms that allow them to hold themselves in place once positioned, freeing the surgeon’s hands for other tasks. Common types include the Wilson frame and the Taylor retractor.
- Hand-Held Retractors: These require a surgical assistant to hold them in place. Examples include the Penfield and Hohmann retractors. They are often used for more precise control in smaller surgical fields.
- Expandable Retractors: These allow for adjustable opening widths, which can be helpful in different surgical scenarios. They can be adjusted as the surgery progresses.
