Schroeder Vulsellum Forceps

Instrument Overview

The Schroeder Vulsellum Forceps are a specialized gynecological instrument designed for grasping and securing dense tissues such as the cervix or uterine walls during various surgical procedures. The word "vulsellum" refers to the instrument's sharp-toothed jaws, which provide a powerful, non-slip grip. These forceps feature a long shaft and a ratcheted handle to maintain consistent clamping pressure without continuous manual effort.

• Vulsellum Teeth: Equipped with sharp, opposing teeth (often 2x2) to penetrate and firmly hold dense, slippery tissue.
• Ratchet Mechanism: Allows the instrument to lock onto the tissue, freeing the surgeon's hands for other tasks.
• Extra-Long Length: The 10-inch length provides the necessary reach for deep pelvic and gynecological applications.
• Specialized Use: Primarily utilized in procedures like D&C (Dilation and Curettage), hysterectomy, or cervical traction.
