Medtronic X0101002 METRx System 24mm x 5cm Tubular Retractor Orthopedic 2-1/2"

Medtronic X0101002 24mm x 5cm METRx Tubular Retractor

The Medtronic X0101002 is a high-performance surgical retractor engineered for the METRx Minimally Invasive System. This 24 mm diameter tube provides a generous working channel for microdiscectomy and laminotomy, allowing for the simultaneous use of a high-speed drill, suction-irrigator, and specialized nerve root retractors. Its 5 cm (50 mm) length is specifically designed to provide a "low-profile" operative well, which is essential for preserving a wide field of view under the operating microscope or endoscope.

Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel with a specialized non-reflective finish, the X0101002 minimizes glare from surgical lights while providing the structural rigidity needed to hold back paraspinous musculature. The retractor features the standard METRx attachment hub, ensuring a rock-solid connection to the flexible table-mounted arm, effectively eliminating "retractor drift" during long decompression cases.

Key Features

• Manufacturer: Medtronic Sofamor Danek

• Model Number: X0101002

• System Compatibility: METRx System (Tubular Retraction)

• Tube Diameter: 24 mm

• Tube Length: 5 cm (50 mm)

• Application: Lumbar/Cervical Microdiscectomy, Foraminotomy, and Stenosis Decompression

Clinical & Operational Advantages

• High-Definition Visualization: The 24 mm aperture provides a wider visual corridor than 18 mm tubes, making it easier to identify anatomical landmarks and contralateral structures.

• Atraumatic Muscle Displacement: Replaces the need for aggressive "stripping" of the multifidus muscle, leading to significantly less post-operative "dead space" and faster patient mobilization.

• Stable Table-Mount Interface: Designed to lock seamlessly into the METRx side-loading flexible arm, providing a "hands-free" stable portal that does not require constant manual adjustment.

• Non-Reflective Surface: The matte finish is optimized for use with high-intensity surgical headlights and microscopes, reducing ocular fatigue for the surgical team.

Condition

• Status: Limited Use – Excellent Condition.

• Functional Assessment: The retractor hub is perfectly concentric and free of mechanical deformation. The internal and external walls are polished and free of burrs, scratches, or nicks.

• Cosmetic Status: This instrument presents in near-new condition, retaining its factory-grade finish and structural integrity.
