Gall Duct Dilator

## Overview

The Gall Duct Dilator is a gall-duct dilator used to dilate the common bile duct and biliary ducts during hepatobiliary procedures. This listing represents the complete Gall Duct Dilator product family, offered as a configurable range of variations that share a common design and differ in defined, printed characteristics. It is classified under Dilators › Gall Duct Dilator and is intended for use by trained surgical and clinical personnel. All specifications below are taken directly from the manufacturer catalog; characteristics that are not stated in the catalog are omitted rather than assumed.

## Instrument Class and Clinical Role

Gall-duct (biliary) dilators are used to dilate the common bile duct and associated biliary ducts, for example to relieve a stricture or to allow passage of instruments during hepatobiliary surgery. Graduated diameters allow the duct to be opened progressively. Instruments of this class are defined by diameter, length and tip form.

## Design and Configuration

Available diameter options are 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 9 mm, 10 mm, 11 mm, 12 mm, and 13 mm. The range of diameters corresponds to the degree of dilation or the calibre required, allowing the instrument to be matched to the anatomy.

## Configuration Options

This is a configurable (variable) product. A specific item is selected by choosing from the available diameter options listed above; the family comprises 13 variations in total. The individual configurations are: Gall Duct Dilator, Ø 1 mm (reference EB061R); Gall Duct Dilator, Ø 2 mm (reference EB062R); Gall Duct Dilator, Ø 3 mm (reference EB063R); Gall Duct Dilator, Ø 4 mm (reference EB064R); Gall Duct Dilator, Ø 5 mm (reference EB065R); Gall Duct Dilator, Ø 6 mm (reference EB066R); Gall Duct Dilator, Ø 7 mm (reference EB067R); Gall Duct Dilator, Ø 8 mm (reference EB068R); Gall Duct Dilator, Ø 9 mm (reference EB069R); Gall Duct Dilator, Ø 10 mm (reference EB070R); Gall Duct Dilator, Ø 11 mm (reference EB071R); Gall Duct Dilator, Ø 12 mm (reference EB072R); Gall Duct Dilator, Ø 13 mm (reference EB073R). Each configuration maps to a unique Aesculap catalog reference so that the exact item can be ordered without ambiguity.

## Technical Specifications

The following specifications are recorded for this listing. Instrument Type: Gall Duct Dilator. Category: Dilators. Subcategory: Gall Duct Dilator. Available Diameter: 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 9 mm, 10 mm, 11 mm, 12 mm, and 13 mm. Variation Count: 13. Family ID: FAM-000080.

## Applications

Consistent with its design as a gall-duct dilator used to dilate the common bile duct and biliary ducts during hepatobiliary procedures, the Gall Duct Dilator is applied in hepatobiliary procedures. The scope described here is limited to the definitional function of the instrument class; the specific procedures, techniques and patient selection for which the instrument is appropriate are a matter of clinical judgement and institutional protocol and should be determined by the operating clinician. No performance, outcome or suitability claims are made beyond the instrument’s stated design.

## Material, Finish and Reprocessing

The manufacturer catalog data underlying this listing does not state the material, surface finish or reprocessing parameters for the item, and these are therefore not asserted here. Confirm material specifications, compatibility and validated reprocessing instructions with the supplier or manufacturer documentation before purchase or use.

## Procurement and Standardisation

Because every item is identified by a stable Aesculap catalog reference number, this listing supports consistent reordering and inventory standardisation across an operating department. Recording the pattern name together with the reference number allows procurement teams to match replacement stock to instruments already in service and to compare like-for-like items between suppliers. Availability, minimum order requirements and lead times are confirmed on inquiry.

## Ordering and Procurement

This product is available in multiple configurations; refer to the individual variations for exact specifications and catalog reference numbers. Pricing is not published on this platform, which operates on an inquiry (request-a-quote) basis. To proceed, request a quote or send an inquiry and our team will confirm current availability, the exact configuration and lead times. This listing is intended for hospitals, surgical centers, procurement teams, distributors and dealers.
