ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a one-hand hysteroscope with a hysteroscope adapter for fixing by vacuum to the portio, in which the hysteroscope shaft and the viewing tube relative to the adapter can be advanced into the body cavity of the patient during hysteroscopy by one-handed operation.
To facilitate operation, for mounting the hysteroscope shaft in the hysteroscope adapter, an operating sleeve is provided, which is externally provided with notches for engagement of a movable forceps handle detent of one forceps half for a stepwise advance and which is arranged on the fixed sleeve bearing together with a fixed forceps half.
Thus, hand force need only be used when the stepwise advance on the optics takes place with visual observation. Automatic arresting of the optics in any random position is possible, without a given hand force having to be maintained.
The one-hand hysteroscope is intended for use in the medical field.
