The 9569816 retractor is part of the METRx® system family, specifically crafted for minimally invasive spinal procedures. With an 18 mm diameter and a 6 cm length, the angled tubular design creates a stable working portal through muscle tissue, allowing surgeons to access deep structures such as intervertebral discs or lamina with minimal disruption to surrounding soft tissues.

Made from durable polymer, this retractor is designed for single use, balancing stability and safety. The beveled opening facilitates smooth introduction and intuitive instrument maneuverability, while its angled profile enhances access in constrained anatomical corridors. Being disposable streamlines workflow and eliminates the need for reprocessing, thereby reducing infection risk and OR turnover time.

Engineered to pair precisely with the METRx II system tools such as dilators, scopes, and light sources, the 9569816 enhances procedural efficiency and ergonomics. It enables ergonomically favorable visualization through a surgical microscope, supports illumination, and simplifies the insertion of micro-instruments for tasks like discectomy, decompression, or neural foraminotomies—all while supporting a muscle-sparing, translucently guided technique.
