Delicate Retractors
Delicate retractors are specialized surgical instruments designed for gently holding back soft tissues, such as skin, muscles, nerves, or organs, during surgical procedures. They are primarily used in fine or minimally invasive surgeries, including neurosurgery, ophthalmology, ENT (ear, nose, and throat), plastic surgery, and microsurgery, where tissue preservation is critical.
