ABSTRACT:
A tenaculum useful in obtaining transvaginal manipulative retention of a cervix includes a first forcep piece extending into a forked set of tines offset vertically and then twisted to form an upper set of grasping edges aligned above the axis of the forcep piece for visual access to the cervix. A second forcep piece pivots within the crook between the first tines, flexing the tines inwardly in to course of the pivot, the second piece including a second tine pair at its end which through surface engagement at the pivot are also flexed inwardly. In this manner visual access to the cervix is provided in a structure which reduces in the grasping dimension with closure.
