Blade Medial for Caspar Retractor 70x24mm (TiT)

Clinical Application

This medial blade is intended for use with the Caspar cervical retractor system to maintain midline exposure of the anterior cervical spine. It provides a stable retraction surface during procedures such as anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF), decompression and fusion procedures, and anterior cervical exposure for instrumented or non-instrumented interventions. The medial placement helps maintain the surgical corridor while allowing the surgeon to work between lateral blades or posts.

Design & Configuration

The blade's 70 x 24 mm footprint offers a defined contact area that helps distribute retraction forces along the midline soft tissues and anterior cervical surfaces. As a medial blade designed for the Caspar pattern, it is configured to interface with the system's screw/post arms to provide secure, reproducible positioning. The rectangular contact area and profile facilitate stable retraction without excessive bulk in the operative field, supporting visibility and instrument access.
