Description

The Markham-Meyerding Hemilaminectomy Retractor offers a wide array of benefits. Its principal use is to provide maximum exposure of the lumbar vertebrae to perform hemilaminectomy.

For this purpose, the instrument features different jaw styles for performing multiple functions. For example, one jaw consists of a wide, toothed blade for pulling tissues apart. The opposite one features a hook-shaped tip that helps in decompressing the spinal cord.

Moreover, the Markham-Meyerding Hemilaminectomy Retractor includes a ratchet mechanism. This particular feature helps in statically locking the jaws at the desired width. Also, the finger rings are important to ensure reliable gripping, while preventing slippage.

Manufactured in premium grade stainless steel with a fine satin finish that reduces glare.
