Taylor Spinal Retractor 100x30mm, 16.5cm

Clinical Application

This hand-held Taylor spinal retractor provides localized exposure of posterior spinal anatomy. It is used to elevate soft tissue and maintain a clear working corridor for procedures such as laminectomy, discectomy, posterior instrumented fusion, and other open spinal approaches where a narrow, stable blade is required to retract paraspinal musculature and soft tissue.

Design & Configuration

The flat, rectangular blade geometry concentrates retraction across a defined area, helping to maintain consistent exposure without excessive lateral distraction. The 100 x 30 mm blade dimension offers a balance between surface area for soft-tissue control and a low profile for access in the confined posterior spinal corridor. The 16.5 cm overall length provides sufficient reach for typical posterior approaches while remaining manageable for hand-held use by the assistant or primary surgeon.
