Abstract
A surgical marker clip and method for enhancing the safe performance of a cholangiography and cholecystectomy is disclosed. The clips are configured to frictionally engage the outer surface of the duct and are retained in place by light clamping force without damaging the duct. Placement of the clips allows a physician to visually isolate the common bile duct from the cystic duct during laparoscopic procedures which reduces bile duct injury typically caused by misidentification or visual misperception of the anatomy during the procedure.
