ARAS® Retractor Instrumentation

The ARAS Retractor is the simple solution for minimally invasive access to the thoracic and lumbar spine.

ARAS provides access through a direct visualization minimizing any changes in surgical techniques and is customizable to meet anatomical challenges in a two-step muscle splitting technique.

The ARAS Retractor split tube design is non-ratcheting and expands along smooth rails to achieve the desired opening.

Curved rails on the ARAS retractor provide greater distal exposure with a smaller incision.

The ARAS color coded retractor guide makes selecting the proper retractor length simple.
The unique self-locking feature automatically secures the retractor blades.
The ARAS side plates are available in a variety of lengths and widths to prevent tissue from creeping into the surgical site and limiting visualization.
