Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure provides a tissue retractor. The retractor includes first and a second tissue-support assemblies that are moveably coupled together. Each of the first and second tissue-support assemblies includes a flexible sheet extending between two horizontal members, each sheet comprising a face configured to contact tissue. The tissue support assemblies are configured such that, in use, the first and second sheets exert substantially all of the force against the tissue that is to be retracted.
