Clinical Application
Designed for firm atraumatic gripping of the cervix and uterine tissue during gynecologic and obstetric procedures. Common uses include cervical traction during dilation & curettage, specimen stabilization, exposure during vaginal surgery, and controlled manipulation of the cervix for diagnostic and operative procedures. The 2x2 tooth configuration delivers a secure purchase for procedures that require reliable traction and minimal slippage.
Design & Configuration
The side-curved (lateral) geometry positions the jaws to the side of the shaft, allowing lateral traction and improved visualization within the vaginal canal without excessive interference with the surgical field. The 24 cm length provides extended reach for deeper pelvic exposure or when working through specula and access ports. The 2x2 tooth tip concentrates gripping force to hold fibrous cervical tissue securely—beneficial when firm control is required for manipulation, measurement, or controlled extraction.
