4A Stone Retrieval Basket (Nitinol)

SKU: 4A-UR-0048

The Nitinol Stone Retrieval Basket is an advanced endourological tool constructed from superelastic Nickel-Titanium (Nitinol) alloy shape-memory wire. Engineered for flexible ureteroscopy (RIRS), it maintains its pre-formed shape even under extreme scope deflection, allowing tipless capture of mucosal-adjacent renal calyx stones without tissue trauma.

Key Benefits

  • Superelastic Shape Memory: Nitinol wires bend without taking a permanent kink, returning to shape after extreme flexible scope deflection.
  • Atraumatic Tipless Geometry: Eliminates the distal wire tip, allowing the basket to lay flat against the calyceal wall to sweep flush stones safely.
  • Kink-Resistant Performance: Resists deformation during repeated stone captures, maintaining full expansion capabilities throughout long procedures.
  • Micro-Size Sheath Profiles: Available in sub-2 Fr diameters to maximize scope deflection and irrigation flow rates during laser lithotripsy.
  • True 1:1 Torque Transmission: Rotates smoothly with handle movement for precise orientation around target stones.
