Double Prong Zelpi Retractor for Deep Tissue and Spine Surgery General Surgical Instrument

Controlled Retraction for Deep-Tissue and Spine Procedures

The Double Prong Zelpi Retractor is a general surgical retractor used to hold tissue aside and help maintain working access during procedures requiring deep exposure. Its double-prong configuration provides two contact points for positioning within the operative field, supporting controlled tissue retraction while the surgical team works around the area of interest. Named for deep tissue and spine surgery, it is suited to workflows where access and visualization are important handling considerations. As part of a general surgical instrument set, this retractor offers a focused tool for maintaining exposure without adding unnecessary design complexity to the operative setup.
