Surgical Green Gelpi Self-Retaining Retractor

Surgical Green Gelpi Self-Retaining Retractor is designed to secure wound and incision edges while maintaining exposure of the surgical site. Available with sharp tips or ball-tip patterns, the instrument supports professional selection according to the tissue and intended retraction technique.

Long angled shanks are designed for the retraction of thicker, tougher tissues, with right-angled and curved shank options available. Curved jaws support smooth placement, while symmetrical shanks, a ratchet lock, and finger-ring handles facilitate controlled positioning and hands-free retention.

Sharp and Ball-Tip Patterns

Sharp tips are designed for secure engagement of tougher tissues, while ball-tip patterns support controlled retraction of more delicate tissues. The blunt profile helps reduce unintended contact with adjacent soft tissue during professional use.

Right-Angled or Curved Shanks

The retractor is available with right-angled or curved shanks to suit different surgical access and tissue-retraction requirements. Its long angled form supports work with thicker tissue.

Curved Jaws and Symmetrical Design

The jaw curvature is designed to support smooth placement. Symmetrical shanks provide balanced instrument action during opening and positioning.

Ratchet Lock and Finger-Ring Handles

The ratchet mechanism allows the retractor to be locked in the selected position, while finger-ring handles support controlled handling and adjustment.

High-Quality Manufacturing

Manufactured from premium-grade stainless steel, the reusable retractor is passivated, ultrasonic cleaned, and dull-polished. It is individually packed and has passed boil, performance, and shape tests as part of the stated quality-control process.
