A hand-held manual surgical instrument designed to engage, stabilize, and manipulate a myoma (i.e., a uterine fibroid) and other gynaecological tissues during their surgical removal. It is typically a one-piece instrument designed as a corkscrew having a pointed helicoidal stainless steel screw at the distal end, with a long slender shaft and a handle at the proximal end; it may be inserted through another device (e.g., laparoscope, hysteroscope, trocar) or be used during open surgery. This is a single-use device.
