Mayfield Brain Spatula 22mm, 20cm

Clinical Application

Designed for neurosurgical exposure and atraumatic manipulation of cerebral cortex and subcortical tissues, this spatula provides a broad, flat contact surface for gentle retraction and controlled elevation during craniotomy, tumor resection, hematoma evacuation, and other open cranial procedures. The 22 mm blade width distributes pressure across a larger area to reduce focal stress on cortical tissue, helping create a stable working corridor while preserving adjacent structures.

Design & Configuration

The straight shaft with a flat, 22 mm-wide blade delivers direct, tactile control in confined operative fields. The blade’s blunt, rounded edges are intended to reduce point-loading on neural tissue, and the 20 cm overall length provides reach into deeper exposures without excessive instrument crowding at the skin incision. This geometry makes the spatula suitable for handheld retraction and for use alongside suction or other microsurgical instruments during fine dissection.
