Blades Medial for Caspar Retractor 45x20mm

Clinical Application

Designed for use with a Caspar spinal retractor system, this medial blade provides focused, low-profile retraction of soft tissues during anterior cervical spine procedures such as anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) and other anterior approaches to the cervical vertebrae. The compact 45 x 20 mm footprint delivers targeted exposure at the operative site while minimizing encroachment on adjacent anatomy, facilitating microsurgical visualization and instrument access.

Design & Configuration

The medial orientation and compact dimensions optimize the blade for positioning along the midline or medial aspect of the surgical corridor. A narrow width reduces tissue distortion and permits closer placement to the vertebral bodies, while the 45 mm length provides a sufficient working edge for typical cervical exposures. The low-profile geometry supports unobstructed line-of-sight for operative microscopes and instruments and integrates with the Caspar retractor frame to maintain consistent, adjustable retraction throughout the procedure.

Instrument Specifications

• Instrument type: Medial retractor blade for Caspar system
