Abstract
A device for intrauterine vacuum therapy includes a pear-shaped fluid-collecting element and a fluid-communicating element. The fluid-collecting element defines an inlet opening at the proximal end and a tubular cavity for receiving a removable guide-rod during transvaginal insertion into a uterine cavity. The fluid-communicating element has a perforated distal end fixed within the fluid-collecting element outside the tubular cavity and has a proximal end adapted for connection to a vacuum-generating system. A method of treating an intrauterine wound or infection includes transvaginally inserting a drain into a uterine cavity and applying a negative pressure to the drain such that the uterus collapses and the inner wall is aspirated against the drain.
