Gastro-urological scoop

A gastro-urological scoop is a reusable, manual surgical instrument designed for scraping or removing tissue from the bile ducts or hepatic system during endoscopic or surgical procedures. Its spoon-shaped, sharp-edged distal tip allows precise access to narrow or curved ductal pathways, while the bendable shaft enhances maneuverability in tight anatomical spaces.

These devices are typically regulated as surgical instruments and may require compliance with general medical device safety standards, depending on the jurisdiction. They are usually supplied sterile or as reusable instruments requiring cleaning and reprocessing between uses, with classification varying by country and specific clinical application.
