Grasping Forceps
Grasping forceps are used to remove stones and remove foreign objects under
direct vision. These forceps are three or two pronged with hooked tips. This
typical design allows the objects to be released easily. The hooks
facilitates secure grasping of both large and small objects. The prong wires
are rounded to allow atraumatic manipulation. They can be easily passed
through the flexible endoscopes.
