Gelpi Retractor — Overview

The Gelpi Retractor (S17-109-00) is a self-retaining retractor with sharp, single-point curved tips and a simple ratchet lock, used for holding deeper incisions open.

Design

Its two sharp, curved single-point tips engage the wound edges directly, providing a secure hold suited to deeper or fascial-level retraction compared to multi-prong retractors.

Clinical Use

Used across general and orthopedic-adjacent surgery to hold deeper incisions open hands-free during dissection and closure.

Material and Construction

Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel and hand-finished in Sialkot, Pakistan for sharp, durable tip points.

Sterilization and Care

Fully autoclavable and intended for repeated reuse. The ratchet and tip points should be inspected before each use.
