Abstract: A dispenser package for vessel occluding bands used in surgical procedures. A thin rectangular plastic card or sheet is provided with winding notches or grooves along opposed edges thereof, such that one or more bands or strands of elastic material may be wound on the card with the individual turns of the strand being spaced from one another. To keep the elastic band from unraveling from the card, slits are formed on the remaining opposed edges of the card and a tongue slit is formed centrally of the card such that one free end of the band can be retained in one of the edge slits and the other free end is retained in the tongue slit. An outer sleeve of transparent plastic film material is adapted to surround the card with the bands wound thereon to help ensure cleanliness of the bands, while allowing them to be dispensed from the card without removal of the card from the sleeve.
