Vaginal Tube & Vaginal Blocker surgical instrument on a clean clinical blue background
Product Overview

What Is a Vaginal Tube?

A vaginal tube is a rigid or semi-rigid gynecology instrument designed for use during an authorised laparoscopic procedure. Depending on its design, it may provide a defined tubular profile, support identification of the vaginal boundary and form part of a system intended to limit gas leakage after the vaginal opening has been created.

Published medical literature describes the use of a vaginal tube as an instrument aid during laparoscopic hysterectomy. See the indexed PubMed reference on vaginal-tube use.

Clinical Notice & Safety Guidance

The exact intended use depends on the tube’s design and manufacturer’s instructions. This page does not provide procedural guidance.

Product Overview

What Is a Vaginal Blocker?

A vaginal blocker is a gynecological instrument or accessory designed to form part of a vaginal sealing arrangement during laparoscopic procedures. Depending on the system design, it may function as:

Standalone Reusable Component
Uterine Manipulator Shaft Accessory
Integrated Fornix Delineator Cup
Vaginal Tube Sealing Plug
Inflatable Silicone Balloon Seal
System-Specific Sized Blocker

Clinical Notice & Safety Guidance

In laparoscopic pelvic surgeries (such as Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy), vaginal blockers are critical for maintaining pneumoperitoneum. They prevent abdominal gas loss following colpotomy and protect surrounding vaginal tissues from thermal or mechanical trauma.
