Holscher Retractors are precision 9 ½″ (24.13 cm) spinal instruments engineered for deep interlaminar nerve root and dural sac displacement during lumbar discectomy. Available in 7 mm ($43), 9 mm ($46), and 13 mm ($49) working tip widths, their smooth curved blade ensures atraumatic neural protection.
Product Description
Holscher Retractors are specialized spinal microsurgery instruments engineered specifically to provide safe, non-traumatic retraction and protection of the thecal sac and spinal nerve roots during posterior lumbar decompression procedures. Designed with an elongated slender shaft, these retractors allow spine surgeons to work comfortably in deep operative corridors while keeping manual handles safely outside the microscopic line of sight.
Built to fit varying anatomical requirements, the Holscher Retractors series maintains a uniform overall tool length of 9 ½ inches (24.13 cm) that provides exceptional reaching depth during disc excisions. The line is manufactured across three selectable working end widths: 7 mm ($43) for narrow interlaminar windows, 9 mm ($46) for standard nerve root mobilization, and 13 mm ($49) for broad thecal sac protection. Its smoothly contoured blade edges cradle delicate nerve fibers securely without causing localized traction neuropraxia.
Forged from premium medical-grade surgical stainless steel with a reflection-free satin matte finish, Retractor Maker produces Holscher Retractors to withstand repetitive hospital autoclave cycles, providing spinal, neurosurgical, and orthopedic operating theaters worldwide with unyielding structural rigidity, high corrosion resistance, and complete clinical durability.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the blade and handle design advantages of the Holscher Retractors?
The Holscher Retractors is a solid one-piece instrument, so its performance comes from blade geometry and handle ergonomics. The working blade is specified as Smooth curved blade with rounded atraumatic margins to prevent neural injury, which spreads retraction force over a wider contact area and reduces point pressure on tissue. The handle is flat ergonomic handle with lateral serrations for tactile grip stability, giving a secure, fatigue-resistant grip through long exposures. An overall length of 9 ½ inches (24.13 cm) 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.
What are Holscher Retractors used for?
Holscher Retractors are used in spine surgery to gently retract the dural sac and traversing nerve roots medially, exposing the intervertebral disc space and posterior longitudinal ligament.
Which surgical procedures are they for?
They are indicated for lumbar microdiscectomy, hemilaminectomy, transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF), posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF), and lateral recess decompression.
What material and finish are used?
The instruments are forged from high-tensile surgical stainless steel with an anti-glare satin matte finish that eliminates optical reflections under surgical operating microscopes and headlights.
Are Holscher Retractors reusable and autoclavable?
Yes. All Holscher Retractors are 100% reusable and fully validated for pre-vacuum steam autoclave cycles (134°C / 273°F).
Can components and blades be ordered separately?
Because this is a solid, one-piece handheld instrument, each tip width is sold as a standalone unit. Hospitals can order complete multi-size sets to stock spinal micro-dissection trays.
Can custom modifications or private-label markings be ordered?
Yes. Retractor Maker provides custom blade widths, altered shaft drop angles, and laser marking for hospital asset tracking upon request.
What is the standard lead time and delivery timeframe for orders?
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.
