Clinical Application
Designed for secure grasping and traction of the cervix and uterine tissue, this Schroeder-style vulsellum is commonly used in gynecologic procedures such as cervical stabilization for IUD placement, dilation and curettage, hysteroscopy setup, and uterine manipulation during operative cases. The 2x2 tooth tip provides reliable purchase on fibrous tissue to permit controlled traction and exposure during examination or operative maneuvers.
Design & Configuration
The straight geometry with a 26 cm shaft length provides extended reach into the vaginal canal while maintaining tactile control at the handles. The 2x2 tooth tip pattern gives focal purchase with minimal slippage when moderate traction is required. This configuration is useful when a firm, stable hold is preferred over atraumatic grasping—appropriate when tissue mobility must be controlled for visualization or manipulation.
