Utah Medical’s gynecological electrodes are optimally designed to provide high confidence of clear margins with minimal removal of healthy cervical tissue, resulting in excellent LETZ specimen histopathology reports.

Utah Medical’s C-LETZ Conization Electrodes are an advanced and uniquely contoured line of electrodes designed for the management of deep endocervical disease.

Current excisional devices for managing deep endocervical CIN lesions lack the shape needed to preserve healthy cervical tissue. Traditional ‘straight-wire’ conization electrodes excise an excess of healthy tissue, which may compromise adequate cervical function.

The C-LETZ Conization Electrodes are designed with a patented contoured electrode shape that removes a constant thickness specimen to ensure adequate removal of diseased tissue without risking excessive excision of healthy cervical tissue.

The design is based on research that has shown that CIN involvement in most endocervical glands extends no more than 3.8mm from the cervical surface.

Key Features

• Unique contoured wire shape provides consistently clear excision margins, providing a 98% rate of certain histopathology diagnosis
• Potentially reduces the possibility of cervical stenosis by preserving healthy tissue
• Potentially reduces recurrence and/or progression rates
• Provides simultaneous haemostasis compared to cold knife conization
• Hexagonal shaft feature locks electrode into pen
• Electrodes are individually colour coded to help the clinician easily identify electrode dimensions during selection
• Electrodes utilise high-grade tungsten wire, which retains its mechanical properties at a high temperature, and maintains shape and wire integrity throughout the excision procedure
• Industry standard 3/32” diameter stainless steel shaft allows easy connection to standard control pens
• High-dielectric plastic insulation protects the patient and clinician from electric shock and burn
• Single-use and disposable to prevent cross-contamination
