The D'Errico Nerve Root Retractor is a precision spinal microsurgery instrument designed to mobilize and protect delicate nerve roots during lumbar discectomies. Featuring an angled 7.0 mm wide by 11.0 mm long blade in selectable 22.8 cm or 28 cm reach lengths, it provides safe neural retraction in deep spinal corridors.
The D'Errico Nerve Root Retractor is a specialized spinal surgical retractor engineered specifically to provide safe, non-traumatic retraction and protection of the thecal sac and traversing nerve roots during posterior lumbar decompressions. Designed with an elongated, slender shaft, this instrument allows spine surgeons to work comfortably in deep interlaminar spaces while keeping manual handles outside the operative line of sight.
Built for delicate neural handling, this D'Errico Nerve Root Retractor model features a fixed 7.0 mm wide by 11.0 mm long angled blade profile. The polished, curved blade tip cradles nerve fibers smoothly, preventing them from slipping back into the operative window or sustaining injury from high-speed burrs and rongeurs. Surgeons can select between two reach lengths: 22.8 cm ($49) for standard spinal corridors or an extended 28 cm ($54) reach designed for deep or bariatric patient anatomies.
Manufactured from medical-grade surgical stainless steel with a reflection-free satin matte finish, Retractor Maker produces the D'Errico Nerve Root Retractor to strict clinical tolerances, ensuring high corrosion resistance, unyielding structural rigidity, and complete autoclave durability for neurosurgical and spine centers worldwide.

The D'Errico Nerve Root Retractor is a solid one-piece instrument, so its performance comes from blade geometry and handle ergonomics. The working blade is specified as 7.0 mm wide × 11.0 mm long angled blade profile, which spreads retraction force over a wider contact area and reduces point pressure on tissue. The handle is ergonomic flat handle with lateral tactile grip grooves, giving a secure, fatigue-resistant grip through long exposures. An overall length of 22.8 cm ($49.00) and 28 cm ($54.00) keeps the surgeon's hand clear of the operative field. It is made from surgical-grade stainless steel (aisi 304/420) for glare-free, corrosion-resistant service.
The D'Errico Nerve Root Retractor is used in spine surgery to gently retract and hold the dural sac and spinal nerve roots medially, exposing the intervertebral disc and posterior longitudinal ligament.
It is indicated for lumbar microdiscectomy, hemilaminectomy, transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF), posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF), and lateral recess decompression.
The instrument is forged from high-tensile surgical stainless steel with an anti-glare satin matte finish that eliminates optical reflections under surgical operating microscopes and headlights.
Yes. The entire D'Errico Nerve Root Retractor is 100% reusable and fully validated for pre-vacuum steam autoclave cycles (134°C / 273°F).
Because this is a solid, one-piece handheld instrument, each reach length is sold as a standalone unit. Hospitals can order both lengths as open-stock inventory to complete specialized spine trays.
Yes. Retractor Maker provides custom blade widths, altered blade angles, and laser marking for hospital asset tracking upon request.
In-stock instruments take 5 business days to inspect and dispatch, followed by 7 business days for worldwide express delivery. Back-order units take 17 to 20 business days to manufacture and 9 business days for delivery.
