PROTEUS® is a versatile retractor system for use in the posterior lumbosacral spine and can be used for both soft tissue retraction as well as distraction.
Cranial / caudal and medial soft tissue retraction is performed using valves that are available in different lengths for individual adaptation to the respective patient anatomy.
The retractor arms are used for distraction. Use of the DIPLOMAT® screws is possible with or without tulips.
Elements that are in situ are black to prevent reflections.

Can be used with screws without tulips – optionally with soft tissue retraction

  • Versatile applications: choose between pure soft tissue retraction or additional distraction.
  • For both lateral and medial use.
Efficient soft tissue retraction

  • Specially shaped valve tips for safe and effective retraction.
Black surface coating
  • Reflection-free black coating of all in-situ elements to prevent glare and improve visibility.
Intuitive assembly and easy to use
  • Quick and secure due to plug-in connections, a push button for unlocking and a key for locking.
  • User-friendly handling saves time in the operating theatre and minimises complexity.
