Blade lateral for Caspar Retractor 75mm

Clinical Application

This lateral blade is designed to provide controlled lateral retraction during anterior cervical spine procedures such as anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) and anterior approaches to the cervical vertebrae. When mounted to the Caspar retractor system, the blade holds soft tissues and longus colli musculature laterally to maintain a clear, stable surgical corridor to the disc space and vertebral bodies.

Design & Configuration

The lateral blade’s flat, low‑profile geometry distributes contact forces across the retraction surface to reduce focal pressure on soft tissues while maintaining exposure. Its 75 mm reach suits typical cervical exposures, allowing the blade to engage the surgical field without excessive prominence outside the wound. The configuration is intended for secure attachment to Caspar-style retractor arms so the blade remains stable throughout distraction and fixation maneuvers.
