Abstract:
For pelviscopic removal of ovarian tumours, a puncture or morcellation of the tumour used to be necessary, frequently causing the peritoneal cavity to be contaminated with contents of cysts or tumourous material. This contamination can be avoided safely by placing the intact tumour into a bag, provided that the tumour has been dissected completely. The intact tumour is put into a bag and both are completely removed at the same time through the abdominal wall. This method increases the safety of pelviscopic ovarian surgery, and its indication for use can be broadened.
