Castaneda Rib Spreader

The Castaneda Rib Spreader is a specialized pediatric and neonatal thoracic surgical retractor engineered specifically to provide safe, controlled intercostal rib separation during congenital heart surgery and pediatric thoracotomies. Designed with delicate, finely calibrated slide tracks, this instrument allows pediatric cardiothoracic surgeons to distribute spreading forces with extreme micro-precision, avoiding rib fractures or costochondral dislocations in fragile infant thoracic cages.

Built to accommodate varying pediatric patient anatomies, this Castaneda Rib Spreader series is offered across three distinct size options: Option 1 ($309) features 10.5 mm × 32 mm blades with a 65 mm maximum track spread for neonates; Option 2 ($329) incorporates 12 mm × 45 mm blades with a 70 mm maximum track spread for infants; and Option 3 ($349) features 15 mm × 60 mm blades with a 120 mm maximum track spread for pediatric and adolescent cases. Handcrafted from premium operating room-grade German stainless steel, the smoothly curved lateral blades cradle the rib margins atraumatically, while the rotary screw drive locks firmly without back-slipping.

Forged with an anti-glare satin matte finish, Retractor Maker manufactures the Castaneda Rib Spreader to withstand repetitive hospital sterilization cycles, providing pediatric cardiac operating rooms, children's hospitals, and congenital heart centers worldwide with exceptional structural durability, corrosion resistance, and complete autoclave dependability.
