A Michotte retractor is a surgical instrument used to hold back tissues and provide better visibility and access during procedures. When it is stated that "a Michotte retractor was placed cranially," it means that the retractor was positioned toward the front (or head end) of the surgical site, likely to expose the area being operated on. This placement aids the surgeon in performing the procedure more effectively.
A Michotte retractor is a surgical instrument used primarily in orthopedic and neurosurgery procedures. It is designed to hold back soft tissue or muscle, providing better visibility and access to the surgical site. The retractor features a curved, flat design and is typically made of stainless steel, allowing for both strength and flexibility during surgery. Its design minimizes trauma to the surrounding tissues while maintaining a clear field for the surgeon.
