Power Morcellator Features Affecting Tissue Spill in Gynecologic Laparoscopy: An In-Vitro Study

The present study demonstrates that less spill is created by power morcellators with an oscillating blade and/or a large diameter (≥20 mm). Furthermore, when using a large-diameter blade the spilled particles are larger, and less morcellation repetitions are needed. By combining these features with currently introduced contained morcellation, the safety of the morcellation process with respect to tissue spill can be further improved.
