St Marks Blade Description:

Overview

The St Marks Blade is a surgical retractor blade used during rectal and colorectal procedures. It helps hold tissue aside so surgeons can clearly see and reach the surgical area. This blade is commonly used with Bookwalter retractor systems and other self-retaining retractors.

Key Features

• Clear View of Surgical Area: Keeps tissue pulled back during rectal surgery.

• Designed for Colorectal Use: Shaped to support safe and controlled retraction.

• Compatible with Bookwalter Systems: Fits securely with self-retaining retractors.

• High-Quality Stainless Steel: Strong, reusable, and easy to sterilize.

• Hands-Free Retraction: Holds tissue steady throughout the procedure.

How It Is Used

The St Marks Blade is attached to a retractor system to gently hold tissue away from the surgical site. This allows surgeons to work safely and efficiently without manual retraction.
