• Overall Length: 5 inches

The Medtronic X1100013 METRx 24 mm Access Cannula Dilator delivers precision and reliability for minimally invasive spine surgery. Expertly engineered to integrate into the METRx System, this 24 mm dilator creates a smooth, stable corridor for tubular retractors — enabling surgeons to access the spine with minimal disruption to muscles and soft tissue. With a compact 5-inch length and optimized diametric alignment, the X1100013 ensures controlled, accurate dilation and retractor deployment for a wide range of lumbar decompression and microdiscectomy procedures.

Surgeons choosing the METRx 24 mm Access Cannula benefit from the system’s muscle-sparing design. Rather than cutting through paraspinous muscles, sequential dilation gently displaces soft tissue — preserving structural integrity, reducing tissue trauma, and minimizing postoperative morbidity. This results in smaller incisions, less bleeding, and faster patient recovery times compared to conventional open surgery techniques.

For medical centers and surgical practices that prioritize efficiency, patient comfort, and high-quality outcomes, the Medtronic X1100013 offers dependable performance and seamless compatibility with the full METRx instrumentation suite. It’s an essential component for microdiscectomy, laminectomy, and other posterior spinal decompression procedures — delivering the reliability, precision, and streamlined workflow that professionals expect in minimally invasive spinal care.

These surgical instruments are categorized as limited use and are in excellent condition. They may be new out of the original manufacturer's packaging or have similar characteristics indicative of minimal prior use. Despite their limited usage, they maintain an exceptional quality suitable for medical procedures.
