Piffard Lupus Curette Fig.2

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled curettage of superficial skin and mucosal lesions, this curette is intended for dermatologic procedures including management of discoid lupus lesions, removal of epidermal or dermal growths, debulking of necrotic tissue, and collection of material for histopathologic sampling. Its geometry supports focal tissue removal with tactile feedback, allowing clinicians to excise tissue layers precisely while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue.

Design & Configuration

The spoon/loop configuration provides a concave working surface with a defined cutting rim that shears tissue as it is drawn across the lesion. This geometry permits controlled, incremental curettage and improves visibility of the work surface. The Fig.2 designation denotes a specific blade geometry and profile within the Piffard lupus curette family, chosen to balance reach, bowl capacity, and cutting circumference for localized lesions and confined anatomical sites.
