Insight Access Retractor System. Minimally invasive access for the posterior thoracolumbar spine.
The Insight Access Retractor System allows access for decompression and fusion through a minimally invasive approach.
Retractor– Versatile blade configurations and large selection of blades
provide direct minimal access to operative level (Figure 1) – Radiolucent aluminum blades and arms allow visualization
of bony anatomy and disc space– Numerous table-mounting points increase the retractor
stability to OR table (Figure 2)– Release button returns retractor to parallel position quickly
(Figure 3)

Retractor handles– Permit cranial /caudal and medial / lateral blades to
independently angulate up to 30° for additional access(Figure 4)
– Available in two angles to accommodate varying patientanatomy

AO Principles
In 1958, the AO formulated four basic principles, which havebecome the guidelines for internal fixation.¹ They are:– Anatomic reduction – Stable internal fixation – Preservation of blood supply – Early, active mobilization
The fundamental aims of fracture treatment in the limbs and fusion of the spine are the same. A specific goal in thespine is returning as much function as possible to the injuredneural elements.2, 3

1Approach
Instrument
02.809.001 1.6 mm Kirschner Wire
The minimally invasive approach uses a paramedian incisionmade through the skin and fascia. This allows muscle splittingwithin the multifidus and longissimus cleavage plane.
Determine the location of the skin incision using anatomiclandmarks or radiographic imaging. Create an incision; thencut through the subcutaneous tissue and make a fascial incision.
Position a Kirschner wire in the incision and advance it carefullywhile controlling the position under radiographic imaging.Fix the Kirschner wire in the bony structure where the minimallyinvasive procedure is planned.
Warning: Ensure Kirschner wires remain securely positionedthroughout the entire procedure. The tip of the Kirschnerwire should be monitored by radiographic imaging to ensureit does not slip off the bony structures (e.g., facet joint) andpenetrate the dura or nerve root.
3Determine length of cranial/caudal blades
Use the dilator to determine the length of the cranial /caudalblades required, by observing the depth measurement on thedilator at skin level.
Synthes 7
2Dilate incision
Instruments
03.610.001 Dilator, 10.0 mm/1.8 mm (light blue)
03.610.002 Dilator, 13.0 mm/10.0 mm (yellow)
03.610.003 Dilator, 16.0 mm/13.0 mm (white)
03.610.004 Dilator, 19.0 mm/16.0 mm (violet)
Insert the 10.0 mm/1.8 mm (light blue) dilator over theKirschner wire. Continue dilation placing the 13.0 mm/10.0 mm(yellow) dilator over the dilator, 10.0 mm/1.8 mm dilator.Continue with sequential dilation until insertion of the 19.0 mm/16.0 mm dilator.
The retractor has a starting diameter of 19 mm and will fitover the 19.0 mm/16.0 mm dilator.
Warning: Ensure the Kirschner wire does not slip out beforethe retractor is in place. The Kirschner wires are long enoughto be held in place by hand during soft tissue dilation.

Optional instrument
03.612.031 Fiber Optic Light Cable
03.615.004S Light Clip, sterile, for Insight Access Retractor
Attach the selected cranial /caudal blades to the cranial /caudalretractor frame as shown below.
Note: Blades are etched with the letters L or R for left andright orientation, and should match up with the L or R etchings on the retractor frame.

6Expand cranial/caudal retractor frame
Use the knob to expand the retractor frame. Ensure theswitch on the frame is in the locked position.
Warning: If it is not possible to expand the retractor, ensurethe skin and fascia incision is large enough and the switch isin the locked position.

Place the blue circle on the light clip over the protrusion ofthe cranial retractor frame. Pull the light clip until it snapsinto the protrusion.
Insert the light clip cable into the end of the fiber optic lightcable. Turn on the light source.

Instrument
03.615.003 Retractor Handle
03.615.005 Retractor Handle, shallow angle
Attach either the retractor handle or shallow angle retractorhandle to toe the cranial /caudal retractor blades (Figure 1).The blades can toe to an angle of 10°, 20° or 30° (Figure 2).
Notes:Press button to release toe angle position.
Retractor handle available in two angles to accommodatevarying patient anatomy (Figure 3).
Warning: If it is not possible to toe the blade, ensure theskin and fascia incision is large enough.
Use of excessive force to toe the retractor blade can lead toblade damage and failure.
10Assemble medial/ lateral frame and blades
Instruments
03.615.002 Retractor Frame, medial / lateral
03.615.500– Retractor Blade, medial / lateral,03.615.590 narrow, 40 mm–110 mm
03.615.600– Retractor Blade, medial / lateral,03.615.690 wide, 40 mm–110 mm
Select medial / lateral blades and assemble the medial / lateralframe.
Note: Each length has both a wide and narrow selection.A shorter length blade is usually required at the midline dueto patient anatomy.

13Final assembly
Connect the medial / lateral frame to a flex arm, if desired. Remove the retractor handles.
Perform the procedure (laminectomy, discectomy, etc.), usinginstruments through the retractor blades.
Refer to the technique guide of the chosen system for thesurgical technique.
Surgical Technique
12Expand and toe medial/ lateral retractor frame
Expand the medial / lateral frame to the desired length andattach retractor handles to toe the blades.
Note: Press the button to release the toe angle position.
Warning: If it is not possible to expand the retractor or toethe blade, ensure the skin and fascia incision is large enough.Ensure the switch is in the locked position.
Use of excessive force to toe the retractor blade can lead toblade damage and failure.
