Sepal Reproductive Devices, Inc. appointed exclusive North American distributor of the Pipelle de Cornier®.

March 15, 2007, Boston MA - Sepal Reproductive Devices, Inc. announced today that it has been appointed as the exclusive North American Distributor of the endometrial sampling device known as Pipelle de Cornier®, a product of CCD International, France.

Endometrial sampling is a procedure in which a tissue sample is obtained from the inside lining of the uterus, and is then checked under a microscope. The tissue is thoroughly examined for abnormalities or signs of cancer. The sampling procedure is generally performed in the doctor's office. The material collected is transferred to a pathology laboratory for analysis.

The Pipelle de Cornier® has set a landmark in gynecological practice as the first quick and safe outpatient procedure in endometrial cancer screening. As evidence-based medicine has become standard procedure, choosing the appropriate tools is a prerequisite, especially in cancer detection. The Pipelle de Cornier® is referenced in hundreds of publications worldwide. That is why the Pipelle de Cornier® has been considered the ‘gold standard’ of endometrial sampling and has been the market leader for over 25 years.
“We are excited to add to our line of world-class catheters and other products for female reproductive health,” stated Ellen Berman, President and Founder of Sepal. “It is also a perfect complement to our product line as we already service the world’s leading IVF Centers and OBGYNs.”
