A wax model (moulage) of a section of uterine pathology; the model is made of oil-painted beeswax with talc built up on two plywood supports; the model shows a grossly distorted uterus -- likely with multiple fibroids and a large ovarian cyst; the fallopian tube and ovary are normal on one side; the other side shows the fallopian tube stretched over a large ovarian cystic lesion; congested blood vessels can be seen on the surface and the spots indicate some hemorrhage; the model has been painted to depict true colours.
