A new uterine elevator/manipulator for gynecologic laparoscopy is described. The instrument is a u-formed tube with a cone for insertion into the uterus via the vagina. In the other end is a handle with a canal for instillation of fluid (dye). After insertion the handle is placed at the pubic area and the operation can be performed with the patient placed at a normal position on her back. The elevator can be handled by the surgeon without moving his hands outside the sterile area. No assistant is necessary. The u-form of the instrument allows the uterus to be moved in all directions facilitating the laparoscopic view and operation. At a study of 97 laparoscopies no difficulties concerning the insertion and use were found. The instrument was easy to handle and pertubation was possible in most cases. The U-elevator is found to be a good alternative to the existing elevators.
介绍了一种用于妇科腹腔镜检查的新型子宫提升器/操纵器。该器械是一根U形管，带有一个锥体，可通过阴道插入子宫。另一端是一个带有用于注入液体（染料）通道的手柄。插入后，将手柄置于耻骨区域，患者仰卧于正常位置即可进行手术。外科医生无需将手伸出无菌区域就能操作该提升器。无需助手。器械的U形设计可使子宫向各个方向移动，便于腹腔镜观察和手术操作。在对97例腹腔镜检查的研究中，未发现插入和使用方面存在困难。该器械易于操作，在大多数情况下都可进行探查。发现U形提升器是现有提升器的良好替代品。
