ABSTRACT:
A gynecologic instrument or uterine mobilizer having a tube with one end attached to a journal pivotally mounted and maintained within a channel in the head of the instrument via a pin engaging a groove in the head. The head includes structure, such as an attachment or collar, for manipulating a desired place of a vaginal wall when the instrument is inserted in the vagina. In one embodiment, the structure includes a collar having a concave surface lying over a surface of the head that is substantially crescent-shaped. In another embodiment, the structure includes a substantially disc-shaped element. In one of two related embodiments, the substantially disc-shaped element may be provided with an indentation or notch in a peripheral surface. In another embodiment, the substantially disc-shaped element is provided with a channel extending at least radially from a central portion of the substantially disc-shaped element, and preferably along a diameter of the disc, for housing elements designed to cooperate to move the vaginal wall towards the abdominal cavity.
