ABSTRACT:
Forceps for grasping, crashing, and removing gallstones from the opened neck of a gallbladder which is extracted through an abdominal port site during laparoscopic surgery. The forceps include upper arms having shallow concave oval tips which include a narrower distal region, a wider central region, and a narrow proximal region. The upper arms are bowed slightly outward to allow the tips to be spring-biased against each other, or against an object held between the tips.
