Hegar Uterine Dilators S/E 25.5mm

Clinical Application

Used to achieve controlled mechanical dilation of the cervical canal to a target diameter of 25.5 mm. Employed in gynecologic procedures where access to the uterine cavity is required, including dilation and curettage, hysteroscopy setup, removal of intrauterine pathology, and management of cervical stenosis. Typically used as part of a serial dilation sequence to incrementally increase cervical diameter while monitoring tissue resistance and patient response.

Design & Configuration

The straight, single-ended tapered cylindrical geometry provides predictable radial expansion with progressive insertion. A smooth, rounded tip facilitates atraumatic passage through the cervical os and reduces risk of laceration. The solid rod construction delivers direct tactile feedback to the operator, enabling controlled force application and precise sizing during dilation maneuvers. The single-ended format is frequently used where a consistent working length and simple handling are preferred.
