A tissue retractor generally includes a pair of arms that are pivotally coupled to each other and each have a finger grip portion on a first end and a working portion arranged on an opposite second end. Each of the second ends comprises an elongated shaft that extends along an axis. A pair of paddles each having a planar engagement body and a mounting portion are pivotally coupled to a corresponding elongated shaft. The paddles are selectively rotatable around the respective axes.
