Codman Cloward Hoen Retractor Set w/ 50-1350 & 50-1359 Blades

Codman Cloward Hoen Retractor Set | Frame & Detachable Blades | 50-1350 & 50-1359

The Codman Cloward Hoen system is a specialized self-retaining retractor designed for the high-precision requirements of Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF) and other spinal or neurosurgical procedures. This set features a hinged, ratchet-locking frame that allows for adjustable, static retraction of soft tissue, providing a clear and stable surgical corridor to the cervical vertebrae.

The inclusion of the 50-1350 and 50-1359 blades suggests a versatile configuration for varying patient anatomies, allowing the surgeon to swap blades of different depths and widths to match the specific surgical site requirements.

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• Self-Retaining Ratchet Mechanism: The frame utilizes a multi-position ratchet catch, allowing for precise, incremental retraction that remains locked in place. This eliminates the need for manual retraction, freeing the surgical assistant and ensuring a steady field of view.

• Detachable Blade Versatility: The system is designed for rapid intraoperative blade changes. The 50-1350 and 50-1359 blades are specifically contoured to retract the esophagus and trachea medially and the sternocleidomastoid muscle laterally with minimal tissue trauma.

• Hinged Frame Arms: The hinged design allows the frame to conform to the patient's neck contour, keeping the handles out of the operative plane and providing deeper access in the cervical spine.

• Atraumatic Blade Design: Codman blades are engineered with smooth, blunt edges to safeguard delicate neural and vascular structures (such as the carotid sheath and recurrent laryngeal nerve) during prolonged retraction.

• Satin Finish Integrity: The non-reflective finish is critical under high-intensity surgical lights and operating microscopes, preventing surgeon eye fatigue and improving visualization of deep anatomy.

Applications

• Spine Surgery: Primarily utilized for Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF) and cervical corpectomies.

• Neurosurgery: Providing exposure for anterior approaches to the cervical spine and deep neck dissections.

• Orthopedic Surgery: Used in various procedures requiring stable, self-retaining retraction of fibrous soft tissue.

Condition & Quality Assurance

• Status: Excellent Pre-owned Condition.

• Integrity: The retractor frame ratchet mechanism is fully operational with crisp locking engagement. All detachable blades fit securely into the frame mounts. As a reusable instrument, this set must be processed through a validated decontamination and sterilization cycle (typically steam autoclaving) in accordance with hospital protocols and Codman’s Instructions for Use (IFU) prior to clinical application in 2026.

• Professional Standards: With over 25 years of experience in surgical instrumentation, Primis Medical ensures all specialized neuro/spine hardware is inspected for mechanical alignment and surface integrity.

Shipping & Handling

• Secure Logistics: Shipped in specialized protective packaging to ensure the retractor hinges and blade attachment points remain in perfect alignment.
