Desjardins Gall Stone Forceps

Description

Desjardins Gall Stone Forceps

The Desjardins gall stone forceps reach down the common bile duct to seize stones. Four figures offer different curves, so the jaws can follow the duct from the opening to the stone.

Four figures

We offer figures 1, 2, 3 and 4. Besides, each has its own curve. As a result, the surgeon can choose the shape that matches the duct.

Why the Desjardins gall stone forceps

Long, slim jaws pass easily down the duct. Meanwhile, the curve keeps the tips aligned with the duct wall. Additionally, that helps reach stones without damage.

Typical procedures

Duct exploration through an open choledochotomy is their main job. Typically, they pull stones from the lower duct. They also retrieve stones from the hepatic ducts.

Choosing a figure

Gentle curves suit a straight duct. By contrast, sharper curves reach stones behind a bend. Moreover, many trays carry two or more figures.

Pairing

The Desjardins scoop and probe belong to the same family. Together they find, lift and confirm removal of stones. Furthermore, a matched set feels familiar in the hand.
