Description

The Inge Lamina Spreader is designed to provide controlled distraction during laminectomy, decompression, and other spinal procedures. By separating bony structures and maintaining the opening, it helps provide better access to the surgical area while keeping the working field visible and stable.

The instrument features toothed jaws that provide a secure hold on bone during distraction. The jaws measure approximately 10 mm wide and 20 mm deep, giving them a substantial contact area for stable positioning. This helps keep the spreader in place while the distraction is being applied.

At 25.5 cm (10″) long, the instrument provides good reach and leverage during spinal procedures. The adjustable distraction mechanism allows controlled opening of up to 50 mm. These options give the user the ability to gradually increase the working space and maintain the desired amount of separation throughout the procedure.

The robust jaw design and adjustable mechanism make the spreader practical when stable exposure is needed during posterior spinal approaches. The toothed jaws help prevent unwanted movement once positioned, while the overall construction provides the stability needed during distraction.

It is made from surgical-grade stainless steel and goes through quality control inspection before it is supplied. The instrument is checked for its overall finish and condition, while the jaws, distraction mechanism, and handle are inspected to make sure they are properly finished, secure, and functioning as intended. These checks help ensure that the instrument is in good working condition before use. The stainless-steel construction also makes it suitable for regular cleaning and maintenance as a reusable surgical instrument.

With its 10 mm × 20 mm toothed jaws, 50 mm maximum distraction, adjustable mechanism, and 25.5 cm length, the Inge Lamina Spreader provides a practical option for controlled spinal exposure. Its secure jaw design and substantial distraction range make it particularly suitable for laminectomy and decompression procedures.
