Teale Vulsellum Fcps 18cm

Clinical Application

Teale vulsellum forceps provide firm, controlled purchase on relatively robust soft tissues and are commonly used in gynecologic and pelvic procedures for traction and stabilization of the cervix, uterus and surrounding tissue. Their secure grasp makes them useful during cervical cerclage, dilation and curettage, uterine manipulation, and other procedures where sustained traction or precise tissue control is required. They are also used selectively in general surgery when a dependable, non-slip hold on thicker tissue is needed.

Design & Configuration

The instrument's 18 cm shaft length balances reach with tactile control for access within the vaginal canal and pelvic cavity while maintaining ergonomic handling. Ring handles with a ratchet locking mechanism permit sustained traction without continuous manual force, which reduces hand fatigue and improves stability during critical steps. The vulsellum-type jaw geometry is designed to penetrate and hold tissue securely, minimizing slippage during manipulation or traction.
