Incision protector, also known as wound retractor. As the name suggests, its two main functions are to protect and retract the incision. 

Protective effects include reducing incision infections, preventing electric burns from insulated incisions, avoiding instrument rubbing incisions, preventing tumor incision implantation, and preventing endometriosis secondary to cesarean section incisions; Retraction effects include retraction of the exposed incision, enlargement of the surgical field of view, and pressure on the mouth to reduce bleeding.

Incision protectors are generally used in traditional open surgery. When the incision protection sleeve enters the field of vaginal surgery and laparoscopic surgery, it opens up a brand-new operation idea for surgeons and brings new opportunities to traditional surgical methods.

Wound protector/retractor-Transumbilical

Compared with multi-port laparoscopy, the main advantage of transumbilical single port laparoscopy is related to the relatively large incision. Because of the expansion effect of the incision protective sleeve, the diameter of the navel incision can reach 2 to 3 cm. Through this incision, the operation under direct vision can be carried out, and it is also convenient to take the specimen.

It can make routine gynecological laparoscopic surgery, such as ovarian teratoma removal, and hysteromyomectomy more efficient and safer. It can be said that the incision protective sleeve is the core of the single-port laparoscopic hardware configuration.
