Sklar Moore Gallbladder Scoop, 11 Inch
An 11 inch scoop shaped instrument used to retrieve gallstones and debris from the gallbladder or bile duct during open surgery.
The Sklar Moore Gallbladder Scoop is used during open cholecystectomy or common bile duct exploration to reach into the gallbladder or biliary tree and lift out stones or debris obstructing normal bile flow. The curved, spoon shaped working end lets the surgeon sweep through the cavity and capture material without needing to force it through surrounding tissue, an approach that helps limit trauma to the delicate ductal or gallbladder wall during retrieval.
At 11 inches overall, this scoop offers reach suited to open abdominal access, giving the surgeon room to work at depth within the surgical field. General surgeons and hepatobiliary specialists keep this type of scoop as part of a dedicated biliary exploration set, typically alongside probes, dilators and gallstone forceps used for the same procedures.
This listing is a single configuration. As with other Sklar surgical instruments, it is manufactured from surgical stainless steel and intended for repeated cleaning and sterilisation between cases.
