Abstract: A surgical retractor tool includes an atraumatic device, and anchor, and a connector coupled at a first end to the atraumatic device and coupled at a second, opposite end to the anchor. The atraumatic device is transformable between a transition configuration, in which the atraumatic device is characterized by a substantially linear shape, and a deployed configuration, in which the atraumatic device is characterized by a non-linear shape. The non-linear shape is configured to releasably engage a first anatomical portion of a patient. The anchor is configured to be releasably secured to a second anatomical portion of the patient. In the transition configuration, the surgical retractor tool is characterized by a substantially linear shape defined along a longitudinal axis extending from an end of the anchor to an end of the atraumatic device.
