Clinical Application
Designed to provide consistent, hands‑free soft tissue retraction during anterior cervical spine procedures. These 70 mm blades attach to a Caspar-style frame to establish and maintain a clear working corridor for anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF), discectomy, level identification, implant placement, and decompression procedures. The length is selected to reach typical cervical working depths while minimizing excess exposure beyond the operative field.
Design & Configuration
The detachable blade mounts to a Caspar-style retractor frame to lock retraction at a selected width and depth, freeing the surgical team from manual retraction. A broad, flat blade surface distributes pressure across soft tissues to reduce focal stress and helps maintain stable exposure. Blades of this length are commonly used singly or paired opposite each other to create a controlled corridor between soft tissues and the spine, improving visualization and instrument access.
