Clinical Application
This instrument is designed to provide controlled retraction of vaginal walls and soft tissue to improve visualization and access during gynecologic procedures. It is suited to minor operative procedures, local repairs, targeted biopsies, and vaginal examinations where a narrow or wider exposure is needed. Two blade widths allow selection based on patient anatomy and the intended working corridor.
Design & Configuration
The instrument is offered in two blade-width configurations (100 mm x 14 mm and 100 mm x 26 mm) to accommodate different clinical scenarios. The slimmer blade facilitates focused exposure in patients with a narrower vaginal canal or when minimal tissue displacement is required; the wider blade provides broader exposure for larger operative fields. A flat blade profile permits even distribution of retraction force across the vaginal mucosa, helping to optimize visualization while minimizing focal pressure.
