Uterine Manipulators and Related Components and Methods

A colpotomizer assembly comprising a cup configured to receive a cervix, the cup defining:

• a cup face disposed perpendicular to an axial centerline of the cup and having a centerpoint disposed along the axial centerline of the cup;
• and
• an opening spaced apart from the cup face and sized to allow passage of a shaft, the opening configured such that, when the shaft is positioned within the opening, an arcuate centerline of the shaft is aligned with the centerpoint of the cup face, and the arcuate centerline of the shaft is offset from the axial centerline of the cup at the opening.

A method of adjusting a uterine manipulator, comprising moving a colpotomizer cup of the uterine manipulator along a curved shaft of the uterine manipulator in a manner such that:

• a distal face of the colpotomizer cup remains centered on an arch centerline of the curved shaft;
• and
• an axial centerline of the colpotomizer cup remains offset from the arch centerline of the curved shaft at an opening of the colpotomizer cup that is spaced proximally from the distal face of the colpotomizer cup.
