Clinical Application
Vulsellum forceps are used to obtain a firm hold on soft tissue for traction and manipulation. This straight, 24 cm instrument with a 6 mm jaw is typically employed in gynecologic and obstetric procedures to grasp the cervix, secure uterine tissue, or stabilize soft tissue during dissection and suturing. The forceps provide controlled purchase on tissue where reliable traction is required without the need for electrosurgical or suction assistance.
Design & Configuration
The straight shaft provides a direct line of access for midline and transvaginal approaches, simplifying tissue alignment and reducing the need for repositioning. A relatively narrow 6 mm jaw concentrates contact force to deliver secure grip on soft tissue while minimizing bulk within the operative field. The 24 cm overall length balances reach and tactile control, allowing the operator to manipulate tissues at depth while maintaining hand comfort.
