Rigby Retractor

The Rigby Retractor is a versatile, self-retaining abdominal retractor designed to provide wide and stable exposure of the pelvic and lower abdominal cavity during procedures like open prostatectomy, hysterectomy, and colorectal surgery. Its frame typically features adjustable blades that can be positioned to retract the abdominal wall and viscera effectively. The self-retaining mechanism locks the blades in place, freeing the surgical assistant’s hands and maintaining consistent exposure throughout the operation, which is crucial for deep pelvic dissection and anastomotic work.

• Self-retaining frame with adjustable, often curved blades for abdominal and pelvic retraction.

• Provides wide, stable exposure of the deep pelvis and lower abdomen.

• Adjustable blade positioning allows customization for different patient anatomies.
