Abstract

The extractor comprises an elongate flexible rod with a gall-stone gripper at one end and an actuating handle for the gripper at the other end. The gripper comprises a bundle of wires (11) which unwind from a central cable (1) passing through the rod, forming loops in which the gall-stone can be engaged. The handle actuates a release mechanism connected to a sheath covering the central cable, the sheath being withdrawn to unwind the cable instead of pulling it backwards. When the handle is released, the cable begins to rewind and thus has a gripping effect.
