Clinical Application
Designed to provide secure purchase on tough soft tissues, this curved vulsellum forceps is intended for controlled traction and counter-traction during gynecologic procedures such as cervical manipulation, uterine traction, dilatation and curettage, and hysterectomy steps. The 2x2 tooth tip offers focused bite to hold slippery or thick tissue with minimal slippage, and the 24 cm length permits access into the pelvic cavity while keeping the surgeon's hands clear of the field.
Design & Configuration
The curved geometry aligns the jaws with the operative axis in deep or confined cavities, improving line-of-pull and visibility. A 2x2 tooth pattern concentrates grip at four contact points to reduce tissue slip while limiting crush over a broader area. A 10 mm tip width provides a balance between secure grasp and minimized tissue trauma. The overall shaft length gives reach for transvaginal and open pelvic approaches where extended working length and precise control are required.
