Blade Lateral for Caspar Retractor 45x24mm

Clinical Application

Designed to provide controlled lateral retraction of soft tissues during anterior cervical spine procedures, this lateral blade is intended for use with Caspar-style retractor systems. It maintains a consistent working corridor for anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF), corpectomy, and related approaches while helping to protect adjacent soft tissues and neurovascular structures from direct instrument pressure.

Design & Configuration

The lateral orientation concentrates retraction force along a broad contact surface to maximize exposure while limiting focal tissue compression. The 45 x 24 mm footprint offers a balance between adequate visualization of the operative field and preservation of the surgical corridor for implant and instrument insertion. The blade is engineered to mount to Caspar-style retractors so the surgeon can position and stabilize lateral tissue edges without obstructing the anterior access route.
