title: Retractor with mobile endoscope.
abstract: I have designed two retractors with mobile endoscopes that allow an assistant to lift up the flap and the endoscope. By doing this, the assistant maintains the optical cavity open while the surgeon dissects. There are two models, one with 180-degree lateral swing and the other with motion in all directions (vertical and lateral).
