Description

Lateral Vaginal Retractor – Advanced Instrument for Optimal Gynecological Visualization

Overview

The Lateral Vaginal Retractor is specifically designed to transform surgical access in vaginal procedures. Unlike standard retractors, it combines anatomical precision with ergonomic control, while maintaining exceptional patient safety. As a result, surgeons achieve superior exposure without compromising delicate tissues.

Key Features & Benefits

1. Anatomically Optimized Design

• First, the curved blades perfectly match natural vaginal contours for trauma-free retraction

• Additionally, multiple width options (25mm/35mm/45mm) accommodate diverse anatomies

• Consequently, the rounded edges prevent tissue damage during prolonged procedures

2. Enhanced Surgical Visualization

• Particularly, the angled blades reveal 30% more surgical field compared to conventional designs

• Moreover, the low-profile construction reduces instrument crowding

• For instance, optional fiberoptic lighting dramatically improves deep cavity visibility

3. Ergonomic Surgeon Comfort

• Not only does it feature textured grips, but also balanced weight distribution

• Specifically, the smooth ratchet mechanism allows millimeter-precise adjustments

• Thus, reducing hand fatigue during complex reconstructive surgeries

4. Premium Medical-Grade Materials

• Primarily constructed from 316L stainless steel for lifelong durability

• Alternatively, silicone-coated versions protect delicate tissues

• Therefore, supporting repeated autoclaving without performance degradation

Clinical Applications

Reconstructive Gynecology

• Essential for vaginal hysterectomies and prolapse repairs

• Similarly critical for fistula closures

Urogynecological Procedures

• Especially valuable in Burch colposuspensions

• Likewise improves sacrospinous ligament fixation

Oncological Surgeries

• Particularly effective for radical trachelectomies

• Additionally aids in vaginal cancer resections

Technical Advantages

For Surgical Teams

• Significantly reduces average procedure time by 15-20 minutes

• Furthermore decreases assistant dependency through stable retraction

For Patient Outcomes

• Importantly minimizes postoperative pain scores

• Consequently may reduce healing time by 2-3 days

Maintenance Protocol

1. Immediately after use, soak in enzymatic solution

2. Then disassemble all movable components

3. Next autoclave at 134°C for 18 minutes

4. Finally store with blade protectors
