  • Surgical retractors designed to temporarily separate and hold back the edges of the trachea, exposing and providing access to particular segments of the trachea and/or other tissues and surrounding anatomic structures. These retractors typically consist of handheld manual instruments in a variety of shapes and sizes; including flat bladed retractors curved at one end, one or more pronged fork-like retractors, and spring-wire retractors. Tracheal retractors are used in open surgery procedures performed in the throat, including excision of tracheal tumors.
