Love Nerve Root Retractor 19cm 90

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled retraction of lumbar and cervical nerve roots during spinal decompression procedures, this instrument provides atraumatic separation of neural elements from disc material and bony structures. It is commonly used in microdiscectomy, hemilaminectomy and foraminal decompression to protect the nerve root while maintaining a clear working corridor for discectomy, fragment removal or foraminotomy.

Design & Configuration

The 90° right-angle geometry places a narrow, blunt blade immediately adjacent to the nerve root, allowing the surgeon to elevate or shield the neural structure while working on the disc or lamina. The 19 cm overall length extends reach into deeper lumbar exposures without excessive shaft bulk, providing improved access in microscope- or loupe-assisted cases. The narrow, atraumatic blade profile is intended to minimize tissue compression while affording tactile feedback and visual control in confined foraminal spaces.
