Caspar nerve root retractor 9 1/2" bayonet shaft 6.0mm wide blade flat handle

Controlled Access for Focused Retraction

The Caspar nerve root retractor is designed to hold tissue aside during focused surgical exposure, helping provide a practical approach to retraction in General Surgery and Neurosurgery. Its 9 1/2-inch bayonet shaft supports reach into the operative field while the 6.0mm wide blade offers a defined contact area for localized retraction. The flat handle provides a familiar surface for controlled instrument handling, and the bayonet configuration can help keep the hand and shaft positioned away from the line of sight. Together, these features support organized handling during procedures requiring careful access and visualization.

Use Cases

• Retracting tissue to support focused exposure during General Surgery procedures.
• Supporting localized retraction around nerve root structures in Neurosurgery.
• Using the 9 1/2-inch shaft to reach operative areas while maintaining a practical hand position.
• Applying the 6.0mm wide blade where a defined retraction surface is needed.
• Handling the instrument through its flat handle during controlled retraction tasks.

Specifications
