Abstract

See full text

A surgical retraction system may include one or more surgical retractor blades connected to a surgical support shaft or frame. Each retractor blade may extend at an angle from said shaft axis and have a transverse bend that forms an acute angle with the shaft axis. Such transverse bend may result in each retractor blade being asymmetrical with respect to said shaft axis. Each retractor blade may further include a tissue contacting side and an opposing side. The tissue contacting side may include holes or other texturing that hold tissue being retracted.
