The 4 cm MIS Tubular Retractor Titanium 18mm is a specialized spinal instrument designed for controlled access during mid-shallow spinal procedures. Its 18mm diameter creates a stable working corridor for surgical instruments, while the 4cm length is suited for procedures requiring slightly deeper access than the shortest retractors, without sacrificing stability or control.
With an overall length of 4 cm and an 18 mm diameter, this retractor provides a defined retraction profile for spinal applications. The straight distal profile ensures uniform circumferential retraction and consistent visualization, supporting controlled manual manipulation during procedures.
