Mizuho’s self-retaining snake retractors provide exceptional stability and control throughout the entire neurosurgicalprocedure. Once adjusted and locked down, the arm maximizes balance and holding power, effectively preventing“drift and droop” that cause spatulas to shift and threaten vulnerable neural and vascular structures.
Retractors are available in both tapered and non-tapered designs. Both are fully compatible with Mizuho’s F-1(C-clamp) attachment, which affixes directly to any standard headframe in just a few seconds. This time-savingfeature is especially beneficial during urgent trauma cases. Retractors can also be quickly attached right to theSugita® Basal Frame using the convenient slide adjustors. Currently, Mizuho offers seven models to choose fromin lightweight, corrosion-resistant titanium and traditional stainless steel.
Self-Retaining Retractor Advantages
- No-drift design holds spatulas securely in place
- Choice of tapered or non-tapered to match your preference
- Faster setup and breakdown than traditional slide-rail systems
