Clinical Application
Designed for gynecologic soft-tissue dissection, this long myoma knife is used to perform controlled sharp dissection and enucleation of uterine leiomyomas during myomectomy procedures. Its extended length facilitates access into the deep pelvis and uterine cavity, allowing the surgeon to develop the cleavage plane between fibroid and myometrium with tactile precision. Common clinical scenarios include open abdominal and vaginal myomectomies where direct manual control of blade orientation and depth is required.
Design & Configuration
The instrument’s 27 cm overall length provides increased reach for deep pelvic exposure while keeping the surgeon’s hand outside the field. A slender shaft supports precise directional control and tactile feedback during sharp dissection, helping to maintain the enucleation plane and minimize unnecessary myometrial trauma. The balance between blade length and handle ergonomics facilitates controlled cutting motions and efficient transfer of force when excising fibroid tissue.
