Anal Retractors

Anal retractors and specula are designed to allow inspection of the anal canal and lower rectum. Whether hand held or self retaining they are valuable for different uses and allow surgical procedures to be carried out with adequate exposure of the area. Anal retractors should always be well lubricated prior to insertion and used with care to avoid damage to the anal sphincter.
