Inge Laminectomy Spreader jaw 22X15mm, 24cm

Clinical Application

Designed for posterior spinal procedures, this spreader is used to separate and maintain exposure of the laminae and adjacent soft tissues during laminectomy, decompression and related posterior exposures. The 22 x 15 mm jaw profile provides a moderate contact footprint appropriate for single-level lumbar and thoracic laminar windows, permitting controlled retraction while preserving working room for visualization and secondary instruments. Common users include neurosurgeons and orthopedic spine surgeons operating in hospital ORs and ambulatory surgery centers.

Design & Configuration

The long 24 cm shaft positions the jaw tips deep in the surgical corridor while keeping the operator's hands clear of the wound entrance, improving access in deeper lumbar or thoracic fields. The jaw geometry—22 mm by 15 mm—balances surface contact and compact profile to engage laminar bone and ligamentum flavum without excessive bulk. Smooth jaw surfaces distribute pressure across the contact area and reduce focal stress on bone and soft tissue. The hand-held spreader format provides direct tactile control for gradual, incremental separation during decompression maneuvers.

Instrument Specifications

Material & Construction

Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel for long-term corrosion resistance and dimensional stability. The instrument is manufactured for repeated use and is compatible with standard sterilization processes (autoclave) and routine reprocessing protocols. Precision machining and polished contact surfaces help minimize tissue trauma at the jaw interface.

Quality & Compliance

Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.

Brand Comparison

Comparable in form and function to equivalent instruments offered by major US medical suppliers.
