HIGHLIGHT 360°
Light emitting retractor
Gerg Medizintechnik GmbH
HIGHLIGHT 360° combines, for the first time, a retaining retractor with 360° area illumination, providing perfect view for minimally invasive surgery. The transparent retaining spatula with its integrated light guide offers perfect illumination of the surgical site and prevents damage of tissue from heat generation. Combining disposable and reusable components ensures hygienic safety at low cost by being environmentally friendly. The cylindrical grip allows a pleasant hand position in the most working situations by providing an optimal weight balance especially in the titanium version. Also the mechanical on / off switch is absolute fail-safe.
