Bakes Bile Duct Dilator 3mm-11mm, set/9, 30cm

Clinical Application

This graduated dilator set is intended to provide controlled, serial dilation of the common bile duct and intrahepatic biliary branches during biliary surgery. Common uses include dilation after choledochotomy to facilitate stone extraction or instrument passage, stepwise enlargement of benign strictures, and preparation of the duct for T-tube or stent placement in open or minimally invasive procedures.

Design & Configuration

The set contains nine progressively sized dilators spanning 3 mm to 11 mm, enabling incremental dilation with fine control over luminal enlargement. Each instrument features a smooth, tapered conical tip that eases entry into the duct and reduces focal tissue trauma during serial upsizing. The 30 cm length provides sufficient reach for typical extrahepatic and proximal common duct work from standard operative access points.

Instrument Specifications

• Size range: 3 mm–11 mm
• Set configuration: 9-piece graduated dilator set
• Length: 30 cm
• Tip geometry: Tapered conical dilating tips for atraumatic entry
• Intended use: Dilation of common bile duct and biliary strictures
• Reusable: Designed for multiple reprocessing cycles

Material & Construction

Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel for strength and corrosion resistance. Surfaces are finished to provide a smooth shaft and tip profile that minimize friction and tissue catching during insertion and upsizing. Instruments are built for repeated reprocessing and sterilization per facility protocols.

Quality & Compliance

Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
