#$%^&*AU2015252096B220170907.pdf#####ABSTRACT A retractor assembly for creating an operative corridor to a spinal target site includes a retractable body and a plurality of retractor blades extending generally perpendicularly to the retractor body. The retractor body is operable to separate the plurality retractor blades relative to each other to retract tissue away from the interior of the retractor blades when the tissue retractor is advanced to the surgical target site and the retractor blades are separated to thereby form an operative corridor to the surgical target site. The retractor body is also operable to splay at least one of the plurality of retractor blades such that a distal end of the retractor blade extends wider than a proximal end of the retractor blade, wherein splaying of the at least one retractor blade is controlled by a gear situated on the retractor body.
