Clinical Application
This serrated Wylie uterine dilator is used to progressively dilate the cervical canal to allow safe passage of uterine instruments and provide uterine access during gynecologic procedures. Typical applications include dilation and curettage (D&C), hysteroscopy preparation, endometrial biopsy, intrauterine device placement, and other diagnostic or operative intrauterine interventions where controlled cervical dilation is required.
Design & Configuration
The serrated distal profile provides enhanced engagement with the cervical os during advancement, improving tactile feedback and reducing the tendency to slip compared with smooth dilators. The instruments 29 cm working length offers sufficient reach for routine adult intrauterine procedures while allowing the clinician to control depth and progression incrementally. The straight configuration is intended for standard cervical alignment and straightforward insertion maneuvers.
