ABSTRACT:
A surgical retractor is provided for retaining tissue, membrane and organs in a retracted position from an incision during a surgical procedure which includes a tiltable ring having an outwardly extending channel to receive arm support means having a projection captured within and movable along the channel. Retractor arms are mounted to the arm support means such that they pass below the ring and extend inwardly toward the incision so as to not obstruct the surgeon's line of sight or movement of the hands along the ring.
