Clinical Application
This instrument is designed for gynecologic uterine curettage procedures where controlled scraping or sampling of the endometrium is required. Common uses include diagnostic endometrial sampling, therapeutic dilation and curettage (D&C), and removal of retained products of conception. The 25 mm spoon blade provides an effective cutting/scooping surface for tissue removal and collection for pathology.
Design & Configuration
The rigid shaft delivers direct tactile feedback and enhanced control during curettage, allowing the operator to apply consistent pressure and maintain a predictable trajectory. The spoon-shaped blade conforms to the uterine cavity curvature to facilitate efficient scraping and scooping of tissue. At 31 cm overall length the instrument offers adequate reach for a wide range of uterine sizes while the 25 mm blade balances surface area for tissue collection with maneuverability in the cavity.
