Blades Lateral for Caspar Retractor 60x23mm (TiT)

Clinical Application

Provides controlled lateral retraction of soft tissues and maintenance of exposure during anterior cervical spine procedures such as anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) and anterior cervical corpectomy. The low-profile lateral blade supports sustained retraction of the longus colli and surrounding soft tissues to improve visualization of the disc space and vertebral bodies while maintaining a stable working corridor for microsurgical instrumentation and implant placement.

Design & Configuration

The lateral blade is configured to mount to the Caspar retractor frame, producing a stable, laterally directed surface that distributes retraction forces across a broad contact area. Its rectangular footprint (60 x 23 mm) balances reach and tissue contact to reduce focal pressure while providing sufficient exposure at the disc and vertebral body level. The removable attachment enables quick positioning and exchange during the procedure to adapt exposure as the surgeon progresses.
