Blades Lateral for Caspar Retractor 55x23mm

Clinical Application

Provides lateral soft-tissue retraction during anterior cervical procedures to maintain and stabilize the surgical corridor for discectomy, fusion, and decompression procedures. The lateral blade is used in pairs with the retractor system to protect paraspinal soft tissues and facilitate direct visualization and instrument access to the vertebral bodies and disc space.

Design & Configuration

The lateral orientation delivers controlled side retraction while minimizing interference with the surgeon’s working angle. The 55 x 23 mm contact surface balances tissue exposure with distributed pressure to help reduce focal soft-tissue trauma. Blades of this pattern mount to the Caspar retractor arms to provide rigid, stable retraction during intraoperative manipulation and implant placement. Choosing the appropriate blade footprint assists in tailoring exposure to patient anatomy and surgical level.
