The Hegenberger Retractor is a fantastic concept, it’s self-retaining and almost like having a third hand. You don’t have to enter the vagina and manipulate the soft tissue numerous times.

It took a bit longer than I thought, but the suturing was great and I’m so glad your invention gives women a better chance to be sutured properly

I am a Senior Midwife from Norway, and I just want to say the Hegenberger Retractor is extremely easy to use. It is flexible, soft and anatomically fitted to the vaginal opening. It opens up and provides a fantastic overview of the vaginal area to be sutured. And a big advantage is that the hand you usually have to use to hold the area open is now “freed up” for wiping away blood and other tasks directly related to the actual suturing.

I had no pain during suturing and was surprised that I didn’t in my perineum afterwards
clinician
I am a Senior Consultant from Denmark, and I have had the opportunity to use the Hegenberger Retractor for complex tears over a one-year period. It is now my first choice in both the labor room and the operating room. The intuitive use and the good overview it provides enable me to focus better as a clinician. It also causes less discomfort for the woman in treatment situations
