Clinical Application
Designed to provide controlled elevation and manipulation of the uterus during gynecologic procedures. Commonly used to lift and stabilize the uterine fundus or cervix to improve visualization and access during abdominal hysterectomy, vaginal procedures, cesarean delivery, and other pelvic surgeries. The forceps enable firm, direct traction to assist dissection, exposure of pedicles and ligaments, and positioning of the uterus without relying solely on vaginal manipulation.
Design & Configuration
The long 27.5 cm length offers extended reach for deep pelvic exposure while keeping the operator's hands clear of the field. The Pruesmann-style elevating jaw geometry distributes contact forces over the tissue to minimize slippage and provide a reliable grip on the uterine fundus or cervix. This configuration supports controlled, directional traction and stable elevation during dissection and suturing, improving operative efficiency in both open and vaginal approaches.
