Clinical Application
Designed for gynecologic and obstetric use, this curved Sims uterine scissors is intended to facilitate precise cutting and soft-tissue dissection around the uterus during vaginal procedures, uterine repair, and related intraoperative tasks. The blunt/blunt tip minimizes the risk of inadvertent puncture to adjacent structures while allowing controlled division of ligaments, membranes, or tissue planes in confined anatomy.
Design & Configuration
The curved blade profile follows the anatomical contour of the vaginal canal and uterine surface, improving visibility and access in deep or angled workspaces. A 23 cm overall length provides extended reach for exposure and dissection without overextending the surgeon's hand. Blunt/blunt tips reduce tissue perforation risk and are useful when dissecting near delicate structures where a sharp-pointed tip would be undesirable.
