Zusammenfassung:A uterine manipulator includes a housing configured to be coupled to an instrument drive unit of a robotic system, a shaft extending distally from the housing, a tip hub pivotably coupled to a distal end portion of the shaft, an articulation disposed within the housing, and a handle operably coupled to either the housing or the shaft. The articulation assembly is configured to pivot the tip hub relative to the shaft and includes a drive cable operably coupled to the tip hub. The articulation assembly is actuatable manually by a user and robotically by the robotic system to pivot the tip hub relative to the shaft. The handle is configured to be manually gripped by a user for manual use of the uterine manipulator
