ConMed Oval Sphincterotome — 2.3mm × 230cm (42305)

Description

ConMed Oval Sphincterotomes are designed to support controlled biliary sphincterotomy and duct access during ERCP and other interventional endoscopic procedures. The oval-profile cutting wire and catheter geometry are engineered to provide predictable cutting performance, stable orientation, and controlled articulation at the papilla.

The 2.3mm outer diameter profile supports compatibility with standard ERCP scopes and accessories, while the 230cm working length provides adequate reach for routine biliary and pancreatic interventions. The oval design is intended to improve cutting stability and orientation compared to round wire profiles, helping clinicians maintain consistent positioning during sphincterotomy.

This listing covers the ConMed oval sphincterotome in its standard configuration for simplified sourcing and reference.
