Clinical Application
Designed for anterior cervical spine procedures, this 50 mm blade provides soft-tissue retraction and operative exposure when mounted to a Caspar cervical retractor. It is intended to facilitate anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF), anterior decompression, and other anterior approaches to the cervical vertebrae by maintaining a clear operative corridor and reducing the need for manual retraction.
Design & Configuration
The 50 mm length balances working reach with controlled soft-tissue displacement, allowing consistent exposure of typical cervical levels without excessive retraction of surrounding structures. The blade geometry engages and maintains soft-tissue margins when locked into the Caspar frame, enabling stable, hands-free retraction throughout the procedure. Because the blade is designed for frame mounting, it supports bilateral and asymmetrical configurations as required by the surgeon’s approach.
