Successful wound management depends on taking the correct approach to the lesion, including deciding whether to close it or manage it as an open wound.

The Soft-ECC® endocervical curette, and the Soft-Biopsy®, gynecological biopsy device, when employed in the lower genital tract, result in the hook tip shearing off strips of tissue to a depth just below the basement membrane of the cervix, resulting in curettage or small punch biopsy histological slides in the lab. The fabric is designed to not only remove, but also collect and store the tissue harvested within its straight rows of hooks. The tissue-filled fabric FDA compliant tissue container can be placed in a vial of formalin fixative and be transported to the lab, where the tissue can be removed safely, effectively, and efficiently (within seconds). The laboratory process is simplified by the design of the Kylon® fabric to easily release the tissue in the lab.

Multiple clinical trials have been published and are summarized on the website. For more information on the existing research evidence, or to use and conduct research in concert with Histologics, please contact us through our Contact US page on the site.
