D&C, also known as dilation and curettage, is a surgical procedure often performed after a first trimester miscarriage. Dilation means to open up the cervix; curettage means to remove the contents of the uterus. Curettage may be performed by scraping the uterine wall with a curette instrument or by a suction curettage (also called vacuum aspiration), using a vacuum-type instrument.
It is a surgical method to clean out a uterus after a miscarriage, to perform an abortion past 9 weeks or to remove tumors. The cervix is dilated and the tool used to scrape the uterus wall is called a Curette.
