Leyla Self-Retaining Brain Retractor — Neurosurgery
The Leyla Brain Retractor is a self-retaining system used in neurosurgery to hold brain tissue away from the surgical field. This provides the surgeon with a clear, unobstructed view and stable access. The entire assembly is manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel, ensuring it can be repeatedly sterilised without degradation.
The system's design allows for precise, stable retraction with minimal tissue trauma. Its components, including flexible arms and a variety of spatulas, are fully adjustable to accommodate various patient anatomies and surgical approaches.
Primarily used in craniotomies and other neurosurgical interventions where delicate brain tissue must be carefully managed and protected.
