| Core Tip |
In presence of large uteri, to preserve minimally invasive surgery morcellation is required to allow removal of the specimens from the abdominal cavity. However, uncontained morcellation has been banned because of the possible spread of occult leiomyosarcoma. Therefore, a variety of tissue containment systems have been developed; in particular, in case of very large specimen the practice of in-bag extracorporeal morcellation has been tested. Herein, we describe a novel technique for extracorporeal intrauterine morcellation using the uterus outermost layer as a bag to achieve tissue extraction of very large uteri after total laparoscopic hysterectomy. Such technique showed to be feasible and safe; it may be adopted in surgical practice, as an additional alternative to the currently available techniques of contained morcellation. |
