Love Nerve Root Retractor, 1/4" wide blade, 7 3/4", 45°

Controlled Access for Nerve Root Retraction

The Love Nerve Root Retractor is a surgical retractor designed to help hold tissue aside during procedures requiring access around a nerve root. Its 1/4-inch-wide blade provides a defined contact area, while the 45° configuration can support angled positioning within the operative field. At 7 3/4 inches long, the instrument offers reach for controlled handling without relying on a broad retractor profile. This focused design can help organize the working space and support visualization during applicable general surgery tasks, while allowing the user to position and adjust the retractor according to the procedure and facility technique.

Use Cases

• Retracting tissue around a nerve root during applicable general surgery procedures.
• Supporting access to a focused operative area where a narrow 1/4-inch blade is appropriate.
• Using the 45° blade configuration to approach the operative field from an angled position.
• Maintaining controlled tissue displacement while the surgical team works within the exposed area.
• Applying the 7 3/4-inch instrument length when reach beyond the immediate hand position is useful.
