Olshausen's Uterine Curettes 27cm Fig.1

Clinical Application

Used by gynecologists and surgical teams for diagnostic and therapeutic intrauterine procedures. Common applications include dilation and curettage (D&C), endometrial sampling for histology, gentle mechanical removal of retained products of conception, and uterine debridement. The instrument is intended to provide controlled removal of endometrial tissue under direct or blind technique as indicated by the procedure and clinician preference.

Design & Configuration

The instrument’s elongated 27 cm length provides extended reach and handling control during intrauterine procedures. The single-ended curette configuration concentrates the working geometry at the distal tip to allow tactile feedback during scraping and tissue collection. The overall geometry is optimized for manual control and predictable engagement of endometrial tissue while minimizing unnecessary trauma to the uterine wall when used with appropriate technique.
