Clinical Application
Designed for controlled scraping and collection of soft tissue from internal cavities, this flexible curette is primarily used in gynecologic procedures such as endometrial sampling, dilation and curettage (D&C), and removal of retained products of conception. The flexible blade allows atraumatic contact with the uterine lining, facilitating effective tissue retrieval while reducing focal pressure that can contribute to perforation.
Design & Configuration
The flexible shaft provides tactile feedback and conformation to the uterine contour, improving access to fundal and cornual regions without excessive force. A 25 mm blade offers a broad scraping surface for efficient tissue capture, while the 31 cm overall length provides sufficient reach for transvaginal access in standard adult anatomy. The combination of flexibility and blade geometry is intended to balance effective sampling with reduced risk of focal trauma.
