Desjardins Gall Duct Clamp cvd 21cm

Clinical Application

Designed for secure occlusion of the cystic duct and bile ducts in open hepatobiliary surgery. Provides proximal control of the duct during dissection, cholangiography, suture placement and anastomosis work. The 21 cm length delivers reach for instruments used in deeper operative fields or in patients with larger body habitus, helping the surgeon maintain exposure while preparing the duct for ligation or repair.

Design & Configuration

The curved geometry follows the natural anatomy of the triangular hepatobiliary field, allowing the jaws to align with the duct without excessive tissue retraction. Atraumatic curved jaws distribute clamping force to reduce localized crush injury while providing reliable occlusion of bile flow. The longer shank offers increased working distance from the skin edge, improving ergonomics for the surgical assistant and surgeon during delicate biliary maneuvers.
