J.M.S.W.S Type Uterine Dilator 10mm, Fig.10

Clinical Application

This uterine dilator is used to achieve controlled cervical dilation and to establish atraumatic access to the uterine cavity. The 10 mm diameter is commonly used as a mid-range size during progressive dilation sequences for procedures such as dilation and curettage (D&C), diagnostic and operative hysteroscopy, endometrial biopsy, and intrauterine device (IUD) insertion. The instrument provides direct tactile feedback to the operator to help minimize cervical trauma during passage.

Design & Configuration

The single-piece, tapered cylindrical geometry delivers gradual radial expansion as it is advanced, allowing stepwise dilation when used in series with smaller or larger instruments. A smooth, rounded tip reduces focal pressure on the cervical canal and mucosa. Solid construction enhances axial control and tactile sensitivity, aiding the surgeon in gauging tissue resistance and depth of insertion.
