ABSTRACT:
A holding device for use during surgical procedures involving tubular body ducts includes a shank portion and a terminal portion. The terminal portion has a bulbous section at the terminus of the rod. The outer surface of the terminal portion is free of discontinuities, and the bulbous section has a cross-sectional dimension slightly less than the diameter of the tubular body duct. The terminal portion can be received within the body duct so that the bulbous section will resist withdrawal when the body duct is tied to the terminal portion.
