ABSTRACT:
A surgical tool for use in abdominal hysterectomies includes an inner uterine-ring assembly having a ring for insertion into the vagina at the juncture of the cervix and vagina. An outer clamping assembly insertable through a surgically opened abdominal cavity is clamped about the inner ring with the vaginal tissue interposed therebetween. The combination presents a scalpel guide for surgical circumcision of the interposed tissue as well as controls undesirable bleeding from the circumcised tissue.
