Clinical Application
Designed for controlled grasping and traction of the cervix and surrounding soft tissue, this vulsellum is commonly used in gynecologic procedures such as cervical dilatation, dilation & curettage (D&C), IUD removal, colposcopy-assisted procedures, and vaginal surgery where secure tissue purchase and traction are required. The toothed jaw pattern provides a firm hold on the cervical os and cervical lip to facilitate manipulation and exposure without frequent readjustment.
Design & Configuration
The curved profile aligns the jaws with the vaginal axis to improve line-of-sight and ergonomics during vaginal procedures. The 3x3 tooth pattern concentrates contact points to reduce slippage while distributing force across the tissue for controlled traction. A 13 mm jaw width offers a balance between secure purchase and limited tissue crowding at the bite site. The 26 cm overall length provides reach and control for routine gynecologic work in the operative field.
