Clinical Application
Vulsellum forceps are designed to provide a secure, atraumatic grip on soft tissue where strong traction and control are required. This straight instrument is commonly used in gynecologic procedures for grasping the cervix and uterine tissue during examinations, dilation and curettage (D&C), hysteroscopy setup, and other vaginal or cervical interventions. Its concentrated jaw profile helps maintain purchase on tissue during manipulation and traction.
Design & Configuration
The straight 24 cm shaft provides direct line-of-pull and adequate reach for vaginal procedures while keeping the surgeon's hand clear of the field. The vulsellum-style jaws concentrate pressure in a small footprint (10 mm jaw width) to deliver reliable grip with minimal slippage, which is especially useful when applying traction or controlling tissue for suturing and removal. The hand-held forceps configuration allows tactile feedback for fine control during tissue handling.
