Blades Lateral for Caspar Retractor 30x23mm

Clinical Application

Provides controlled lateral retraction of soft tissues and longus colli during anterior cervical spine procedures. The lateral blade is intended to be used with a Caspar-style cervical retractor system to maintain consistent exposure of the vertebral bodies and disc spaces during procedures such as anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) or anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion (ACCF). By securing the flank of the wound, it aids in visualization and operative access while helping protect surrounding soft tissues.

Design & Configuration

The lateral orientation positions the blade along the sidewall of the surgical field to create a stable retraction plane. The 30x23mm footprint balances the need for adequate exposure with minimized focal pressure on soft tissue. The blade is configured to mount on Caspar-style uprights and arms, providing a fixed, hands-free retraction point that preserves the working corridor for instrumentation and microsurgical maneuvers.
