Rigid endoscopic stone-retrieval forceps, reusable

40 devices · GMDN 37141

Rigid endoscopic stone-retrieval forceps are reusable surgical tools designed to grasp and remove stones—such as urinary calculi—or foreign objects during endoscopic procedures. Inserted through an endoscope’s working channel, these instruments use scissor-like handles to activate grasping claws at the distal tip, allowing precise extraction of trapped debris from the body’s internal passages.

These devices are typically regulated as surgical instruments, often requiring compliance with general medical device safety standards. They are commonly supplied as part of a surgical kit or as standalone reusable instruments, requiring proper sterilization and maintenance between uses to ensure clinical efficacy and patient safety.
