Mayo Gall Stone Scoop 28cm

Clinical Application

Designed for the controlled retrieval of gallstones and small debris from the gallbladder and bile ducts during open biliary procedures. The instrument enables surgeons to remove loose or impacted calculi during cholecystectomy, choledochotomy, and common bile duct exploration while minimizing manipulation of surrounding tissue and reducing the risk of stone fragmentation.

Design & Configuration

The spoon-shaped bowl and elongated shank provide reach and a neutral approach angle to access the gallbladder fossa and biliary tree. The shallow, rounded scoop geometry holds stones securely for one-handed extraction and allows directed placement into specimen traps or suction devices. The length helps reach deeper anatomy in the upper abdomen without excessive instrument crowding at the incision.
