Sims Uterine Curette mal. sh 35mm 31cm Fig.15

Clinical Application

This instrument is intended for gynecologic procedures that require controlled scraping or debridement of the endometrial lining and removal of intrauterine tissue. Common uses include diagnostic and therapeutic curettage, evacuation of retained products of conception, and tissue sampling during dilation and curettage (D&C) procedures in ambulatory and operative settings.

Design & Configuration

The Sims pattern features a concave, spoon-shaped blade that provides a broad surface for effective tissue contact and controlled scraping. The malleable shaft can be manually shaped to match uterine axis and angulation, improving access and tactile feedback while minimizing the need for repeated instrument exchanges. A 31 cm overall length offers extended reach for varying uterine positions, while the 35 mm curetting head balances surface area with maneuverability.
