The handle portion includes relatively movable plastic handles 20A, 20B. The jaw mechanism includes jaws 5 40A, 40B for engaging a cystic duct. The hollow elongate shaft connects the handle portion to the jaw mechanism and internally carries an actuating rod 70 and a further hollow shaft 60. The actuating rod operably connects the handle portion to the jaw mechanism to enable operation of the jaws by the handles. The further hollow shaft is suitable for carrying a flexible catheter to be inserted into the cystic duct.
