A single use self-contained surgical knife provides twist stability and lateral support for the knife blade. Turning a knurled ring member within the containment casing retracts the knife blade into the containment casing. Retraction of the blade is permanent; once retracted, subsequent usage of the knife blade is prevented. A substantial safety margin is provided, in that injuries occasioned by the retraction process are virtually eliminated. The knife blade remains forever in the retracted condition, preventing spread of blood borne infections such as AIDS, Hepatitis and the like, that might otherwise result from subsequent usage of the knife blade.

Un couteau chirurgical indépendant et à usage simple assure la stabilité de la torsion et un support latéral à la lame du couteau. Le fait de tourner un élément annulaire moleté dans le boîtier rétracte la lame de couteau dans le boîtier. La rétraction de la lame est permanente. Une fois rétractée, la lame ne peut être utilisée. Une marge de sécurité sensible est assurée et on élimine virtuellement toute probabilité de blessures occasionnées par le procédé de rétraction. La lame de couteau reste toujours dans la position rétractée, ce qui évite la diffusion d'infections transmises par le sang, notamment le SIDA, les hépatites et analogues qui pourraient avoir lieu lors de l'utilisation d'une lame de couteau.
