McCulloch-type microdiscectomy retractor muscle blade, multi-toothed pattern 8.0cm blade titanium

Controlled Muscle Retraction for Focused Surgical Access

The McCulloch-type microdiscectomy retractor muscle blade is a multi-toothed retractor component intended for controlled muscle retraction during procedures requiring focused access. Its 8.0cm blade length supports practical reach within the operative field, while the multi-toothed pattern is suited to maintaining contact with soft tissue during positioning and exposure. Made from titanium, the blade offers a lightweight instrument design for routine handling. It is relevant to retractor workflows in both General Surgery and Neurosurgery, including microdiscectomy-related applications where organized tissue management and clear working access are important.

Use Cases

• Retracting muscle and soft tissue during microdiscectomy-related procedures.
• Supporting focused exposure in Neurosurgery workflows requiring a McCulloch-type retractor configuration.
• Assisting General Surgery teams with controlled tissue retraction where a multi-toothed blade pattern is appropriate.
• Using the 8.0cm blade to provide practical reach within the operative field.
• Positioning a titanium retractor blade as part of a compatible retractor assembly or surgical instrument setup.

Specifications

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the blade according to facility protocols and the applicable instrument instructions for use.
• Inspect the multi-toothed pattern and blade surface before and after use for visible damage, deformation, or retained soil.
• Handle the teeth carefully during cleaning, assembly, and transport to help preserve the intended retraction profile.
• Store the blade in a manner that protects the teeth and titanium surface from contact damage.
