Abstract
Morcellation performed through the vagina can be quick and easy using the technique shown in this video. Not only does the technique provide vaginal protection and retraction, but it also contains the specimen to prevent its loss during the morcellation process and to avoid the spread of any unforeseen malignancy. By eliminating the need to close the abdominal fascia, surgical time is reduced, and concerns about hernia formation from extended incisions are allayed.
