Abstract

See full text

A surgical tool for extracting varicose veins includes an elongate handle with a hook at one end and a piercing/dilating head at the other end. The piercing/dilating head is bulbous in shape and has both a sharp tip and a dilating surface that can be used to dilate an opening without making a longitudinal incision. The hook can be used to extract the vein through the dilated opening. Sculpted sections on the piercing/dilating head help to prevent the tool from rolling on flat surfaces, and alternating sections of relieved surfaces and surfaces with polygonal cross-sections make it easier to grip.
