Abstract
A surgical retractor may be provided for a surgical procedure such as spinal surgery. The surgical retractor may include a pair of tissue retainers and a pair of separators. The separators may be positioned in channels of the tissue retainers to move distal ends of the tissue retainers apart, retract tissue, and enlarge an opening in a patient. In some embodiments, a nerve root retractor may be removably coupled to a surgical retractor to retain dura on one side of the spinal column and provide working room for the surgical procedure.
