A system for providing access to a surgical site includes a first dilator； a second dilator slidably couplable to a first side of the first dilator and including a first interface portion； a plurality of additional dilators slidably couplable to a second side of the first dilator in a nested manner； and at least one retractor member including a second interface portion removably couplable to the first interface portion. When the first interface portion is coupled to the second interface portion, and the second dilator and the plurality of additional dilators are coupled to the first dilator, the second dilator and the at least one retractor member form a retractor wall extending about the first dilator and the plurality of additional dilators.
