Clinical Application
These 40 mm blades are designed for use with a Caspar retractor system to provide stable, atraumatic exposure of the anterior cervical spine. They are intended to secure soft tissue and work in conjunction with the distractor arms during anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) and other anterior cervical procedures where controlled retraction and maintenance of operative exposure are required.
Design & Configuration
The 40 mm blade width balances broad exposure of the disc space and vertebral bodies with controlled soft-tissue retraction. The blades mount to the Caspar retractor interface to lock the retractor in place and maintain distraction during instrumentation and graft placement. Blade geometry and edge profile are selected to provide a stable seating against soft tissue or bony margins while minimizing bulk in the surgical field—facilitating visualization and instrument access.
