Desjardin Gall Stone Probe Fig.1, 28cm

Clinical Application

Designed for intraoperative biliary exploration, the probe is used to locate and palpate gallstones, probe the cystic duct and common bile duct, and confirm ductal patency during cholecystectomy and other biliary procedures. The 28 cm length provides reach into the hepatobiliary anatomy from common abdominal approaches and supports both localization and gentle manipulation of intraductal calculi.

Design & Configuration

The straight, slender shaft offers direct, controlled advancement with clear tactile feedback for delicate exploration. A blunt, atraumatic tip minimizes tissue trauma when negotiating ductal lumina or when directing retrieval devices. The extended 28 cm working length gives additional reach for deep intra-abdominal access while maintaining a compact profile for precise handling.
