The anatomy-conserving SOAR system is the first retractor to integrate neural retraction and articulating discectomy instruments with a tubular tissue retractor system. By reducing neural retraction requirements and enhancing visualization, the SOAR Retractor System is designed to minimize neurologic risk while facilitating decompression and discectomy for interbody fusion procedures.One-Pass System integration Access Portal maintains hands-free neural retraction during discectomyRetractor tubes Retractor tube lengths up to 120mm to accommodate larger patients and extra-foraminal approaches Choice of multiple diameters to balance visualization needs with anatomy conservationDilation optionsThe SOAR system can be used with standard dilation methods or with the unique Oblique Access Dilation System (OADS) to facilitate facet-preserving access to the spine
