摘要
An apparatus (1) for inserting a wound retractor device (2) at least partially through a wound opening. The apparatus (1) comprises a conveying device (4) and a holder element (5). The conveying device (4) is insertable at least partially through the wound opening to convey the would retractor device (2) at least partially through the wound opening. The holder element (5) holds part of the wound retractor device (2) in a low-profile configuration. The holder element (5) is slidable relative to the conveying device (4) between a holding configuration in which part of the wound retractor device (2) is held in the low-profile configuration, and a release configuration in which the wound retractor device (2) is released. As the conveying device (4) is inserted through the wound opening, the holder element (5) engages with the external surface of the tissue. In this manner the holder element (5) is moved from the holding configuration to the release configuration.
