Blades blunt for Caspar Retractor 50x20mm

Clinical Application

Blunt blades for the Caspar retractor provide atraumatic retraction and exposure of the anterior cervical spine during procedures such as anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) and other anterior cervical exposures. The blunt contact surface distributes retraction forces across soft tissues to reduce focal pressure and the risk of soft-tissue penetration. The 50x20 mm blade size offers a moderate contact footprint suited for single-level cervical exposures or where a compact blade profile is preferred.

Design & Configuration

The blunt geometry is intended to minimize tissue trauma while maintaining secure retraction. The blade is configured to mount to the Caspar retractor frame, delivering stable, hands-free exposure and allowing the surgeon to maintain distraction and visualization throughout the procedure. The 50x20 mm footprint balances tissue coverage and instrument profile to fit within the operative field without excessive bulk.
