Clinical Application
Designed to provide secure grip and controlled traction on soft tissues, this vulsellum is commonly used in gynecologic procedures to grasp the cervix, vaginal mucosa and other pelvic tissues. The focused 2x2 tooth tip allows the surgeon to obtain firm purchase for manipulation, exposure and suturing while minimizing slippage during tissue handling.
Design & Configuration
The 23 cm shaft length offers extended reach for procedures where deeper access and stable handling are required. The 2x2 jaw arrangement produces a focal bite that balances secure holding with limited tissue crushing area, making it suitable for controlled traction and positional control during operative steps. The forceps' general forceps configuration supports precise fingertip control for delicate maneuvers.
