ABSTRACT:
A combination uterine manipulative and injector device having a multi-lumen catheter for uterine insertion having an inflatable member at its insertable end which when inflated seals the lower portion of the uterus to retain fluid or gas injected into the uterine cavity and contributes to attachment of the device to the uterus. A handle in place on the catheter has a fixed stop engageable with the external os of the cervix to limit catheter insertion. The inflatable member is shaped to prevent catheter tip contact with the uterine wall and to urge the stop into biased engagement with the cervix to effect secure attachment of the device to the uterus enabling manual positioning of the uterus by the device for examination purposes.
