Additional Information for Endocervical Curette
Endocervical curettes are medical instruments used in gynecology for the collection of tissue samples from the endocervical canal. The endocervical canal is the narrow passage that connects the uterus to the vagina.
These curettes are typically made of stainless steel and have a long, slender handle with a curved or spoon-shaped tip. The tip is designed to gently scrape the lining of the endocervical canal to collect cells or tissue for further examination, such as in a Pap smear or biopsy.
Endocervical curettes are commonly used by gynecologists during routine pelvic exams or when investigating abnormal cervical cells or other gynecological conditions. They are disposable or can be sterilized for reuse, depending on the specific design and manufacturer's instructions.
It's important to note that the use of endocervical curettes should be performed by trained medical professionals to ensure proper technique and patient safety.
