but retractor is the correct terminology for a surgical instrument that acts exactly as this tool does when employed as a Mac cracker. IIRC, a retractor has the same sort of widget as a hemostat, but to hold it open while spreading an incision, as opposed to clamping :beige:

Indeed. I am a vet, now I work as microbiolgist (http://www.facebook.com/ispezionealimenti, but in early '90s I started as a vet in large animal surgery and the term retractor made sense. Now, in the light of these post, I believe that another term should be used.
