Sims Uterine Curette mal. sh 12mm 31cm Fig.5

Clinical Application

Used in gynecologic procedures requiring controlled mechanical curettage of the endometrial lining. This instrument is suitable for dilation and curettage (D&C), removal of retained products of conception, and endometrial sampling where a rigid, shaped curetting surface is required to collect tissue or evacuate contents from the uterine cavity.

Design & Configuration

The malleable shaft allows gentle manual shaping to match the patient’s uterine axis and curvature, improving access and minimizing the need for excessive manipulation. The 12 mm curetting tip provides a broad contact surface for effective tissue removal while maintaining tactile feedback. The 31 cm overall length provides extended reach for a range of anatomical presentations and operative setups.
