This instrument is Cusco’s self retaining bivalved speculum
Cusco’s self retaining bivalved speculum is a surgical instrument used for vaginal and cervical examination. It has a jaw which opens up like a duck bill. It comes in three models : side scew, centre screw and in special narrow virgin size. The Cusco’s speculum is usually 80mm long and 22 mm broad
Cusco’s speculum is used for introducing an intra-uterine contraceptive device, taking a Pap smear, cauterization of vaginal erosion and for colposcopic examination. It is preferred in cryosurgery because it protects the anterior and posterior vaginal wall.
