A biliary stone extraction basket (stone retrieval basket) is a single-use wire basket that grips and removes a bile duct stone during ERCP. Urology basket catheters are separate products. This page lists a four wire basket type and a six wire Dormia type, in braided or monofilament wire, with guidewire versions. A lateral Luer lock port takes contrast.

A single-use wire basket used to capture and remove bile duct stones, in braided and monofilament versions.
A biliary stone extraction basket, also called a stone retrieval basket, extractor basket or Dormia basket, is a wire basket catheter used to capture and remove stones from the bile duct in ERCP. It is used only together with an endoscope, and contrast can be injected through its lateral Luer lock connector. This page covers biliary baskets, not urology basket catheters; it lists a four wire basket type and a six wire Dormia type.
Two geometries and two wires: a four wire basket type and a six wire Dormia type, in braided wire at 2.3 mm and in monofilament wire at 1.8 mm. The basket sizes in the table are 40, 50 and 60 mm.
The GW versions accept a guidewire up to 0.035 inch, in the same three basket sizes, so ductal access is not lost when the basket is exchanged.
The uses on this page are a medium or large common bile duct stone that a balloon cannot hold on to, fragments captured after lithotripsy, and a dilated or tortuous duct where the stone has to be gripped. According to the manufacturer the extraction balloon takes out stones and fragments up to about 1.0 cm in diameter. The choice is the physician's.
According to the instructions for use, a stone that cannot be removed because of its size and cannot be released from the basket can be broken with the manufacturer's emergency lithotripsy set; the braided baskets take mechanical lithotripsy. The instructions state that lithotripsy has no guarantee of success: if the stone is too hard, the basket can be destroyed, and the stone then has to be removed surgically together with the broken basket. Lithotripsy is stopped at once when the stone will not break.
