Blake Gall Stone Fcps cvd 20cm

Clinical Application

Designed for atraumatic grasping and retrieval of gallstones during biliary surgery, this curved Blake gallstone forceps is used to remove calculi from the gallbladder, cystic duct remnant, or common bile duct during open biliary procedures and choledocholithotomy. The instrument provides controlled purchase on slippery, irregular stone surfaces while minimizing soft-tissue trauma to the gallbladder and ductal epithelium.

Design & Configuration

The curved shaft and beak geometry allow the surgeon to approach stones at an angle that preserves visualization and access within the gallbladder fossa and ductal lumen. A 20 cm working length provides reach into deeper portions of the gallbladder or biliary tract in open approaches while the curved profile helps align the jaws with the target for secure retrieval. The jaw configuration is optimized to cradle and stabilize calculi rather than shear tissue, improving control during extraction.
