Clinical Application
Used in gynecologic procedures requiring controlled endometrial tissue removal or sampling. The rigid, blunt 20 mm loop is intended for diagnostic and therapeutic dilation and curettage (D&C), endometrial biopsy, evacuation of retained products of conception and postpartum curettage. The blunt loop geometry facilitates broad, atraumatic scraping and tissue collection while minimizing focal cutting forces.
Design & Configuration
The rigid 31 cm shaft provides reach and direct tactile feedback for access to the uterine cavity in anteverted or retroverted anatomies and when greater depth is required. The 20 mm loop diameter offers a balance between surface area for effective tissue engagement and precise control for localized sampling. A blunt loop profile reduces the likelihood of focal perforation compared with sharper curette tips and is suited for controlled scraping under direct or indirect visualization.
