Clinical Application
This large-caliber Leech-Wilkinson intrauterine cannula provides atraumatic access to the uterine cavity for procedures that require irrigation, aspiration, or passage of instruments. It is used in diagnostic and therapeutic gynecologic workflows including uterine lavage, endometrial sampling, and as an adjunct during dilation and curettage or evacuation procedures where a wider lumen facilitates removal of tissue or fluid.
Design & Configuration
The instrument's large 16 x 30 mm tip dimension creates a wider lumen compared with standard suction cannulae, improving material flow during aspiration and simplifying passage of small instruments or tissue fragments. At 26.5 cm overall length, the cannula reaches the uterine cavity comfortably in typical adult anatomy while allowing the operator clear external control. The Leech-Wilkinson pattern is configured to balance lumen size with a profile designed for smooth cervical entry and atraumatic manipulation within the cavity.
