Medlene® Bakes Gall Duct Dilators are specialized devices that gastroenterology and general surgeons can use to access the common bile duct and therefore probe its lumen, in order to explore and check for retained stones.
The Bakes Gall Duct Dilators offer a wide range of surgical benefits. Its principal use is to dilate narrowed bile ducts to permit an adequate bile flow and check for gall stones.
For this purpose, the instruments feature an ovoid, probe-shaped tip with blunt surfaces to minimize local damage. In addition, the tip is available in multiple diameters, ranging from 1.0 to 13.0mm. As a result, surgeons can treat a variety of patients and suit a variety of duct sizes.
Moreover, the Bakes Gall Duct Dilators feature a malleable shaft for enhanced intraductal manipulation. Also, the small, square-shaped handle helps to minimize the risk of slippage and provides optimal instrument control.
Made in highest quality, surgical grade stainless steel with satin finish to reduce glare. The instrument can be sterilized and reused.
