• Different types of curettes exist, each with specific designs and purposes depending on the intended procedure.
• The Busse Uterine Curette (279) likely falls under the category of operative curettes, used for surgical interventions within the uterus.

Specifics about the 279:

• Open tip: This may indicate its use for removing larger tissue samples or debris compared to curettes with optens (closed) tips.
• Curved design: This might facilitate access to different areas within the uterus, potentially for more targeted tissue removal.
