Sklar Heiming Kidney Stone Forceps, Slight Curve
A 6-3/4 inch, slightly curved Sklar Heiming kidney stone forceps, used by urologists to grasp and remove kidney or ureteral stones during surgery.
The Sklar Heiming Kidney Stone Forceps is a 6-3/4 inch instrument with a slight curve along its jaw, designed to grasp and remove kidney or ureteral stones during open urologic surgery. The gentle curve gives the urologist a favourable approach angle when reaching into the renal pelvis or ureter to locate and extract a stone without unnecessary manipulation of surrounding tissue, which supports a cleaner, more controlled stone retrieval.
This pattern is offered by Sklar in two sizes, letting urologic surgeons choose the length and reach that suits the specific procedure and patient anatomy. Urologists performing open pyelolithotomy or ureterolithotomy procedures rely on stone forceps like this as core equipment for physically retrieving calculi once the urinary tract has been opened, and it is typically included as part of a dedicated urology or renal surgery instrument set.
The instrument is made from surgical grade stainless steel and intended for repeated sterilized use.
