A rib spreader, also known as Finochietto retractor, is a type of retractor specifically designed to separate ribs in thoracic surgery.

A rib expander, also known as a rib divider or rib tensioner, is a medical device used in thoracic surgery. Its main function is to divide the ribcage between the sternum (breastbone) and the ribs to provide better visibility and maneuvering space, allowing the surgeon to access the chest cavity for surgery. Thoracic surgery may include heart surgery, lung surgery, esophageal surgery, etc., which require access to the chest cavity. Because the organs and structures inside the chest cavity are protected by the ribs, during these procedures, the ribs must be divided first so that the doctor can better access the inside of the chest cavity. Rib expanders are usually made of stainless steel or another durable material to ensure they can withstand the stress during the procedure. They usually have a curved design to fit the shape of the rib and feature an adjustable mechanism that allows the surgeon to control the degree of expansion as needed.
