Abstract
Embodiments of pelvic floor muscle incising tool of this disclosure include a housing that provides an effective way to shoe-horn the tool and its surgical cutting blade into a precise location between a baby's head and the mother's pelvic floor muscles. The housing provides a duckbill shape that allows for precise placement of the blade to create the incision, protects the baby from the cutting blade (creating only a posterior incision in the vaginal canal), distributes forces applied by and to the baby's head, and allows for concealed extraction of the blade after the incision has been made.
