Blade Lateral for Caspar Retractor 40x24mm (TiT)

Clinical Application

This lateral blade is intended for use with a Caspar cervical retractor system to provide controlled lateral retraction of soft tissues and maintain exposure of the anterior cervical spine. It is used to stabilize and protect soft tissues and neurovascular structures while enabling access for discectomy, interbody grafting, plate fixation, and related anterior cervical procedures.

Design & Configuration

The blade's lateral orientation and rectangular 40x24 mm footprint deliver a broad contact surface that helps distribute retraction forces evenly across soft tissue, minimizing focal pressure points. The geometry provides stable engagement with the surgical field when mounted to a Caspar retractor frame, helping to maintain consistent exposure with minimal need for frequent adjustments. A compact profile aids insertion and visualization in the confined anterior cervical corridor.
