Description

A LAPAROSCOPIC ENCLOSED MORCELLATION BAG AND ITS
USAGE METHOD Technical Field
The invention is related to an enclosed laparoscopic morcellation bag and usage method thereof; wherein said laparoscopic morcellation bag enables, to prevent complications that might occur due to scattering of the specimen that has been broken into pieces via the usage of morcellator devices when extracting solid materials out of the abdomen, and makes it easier to extract out the specimen (sample) located inside the abdomen (abdominal region) during laparoscopic operations.
Prior Art
Laparoscopic surgery which is a method that has been progressing rapidly and has been becoming more widespread in the field of surgery, is frequently chosen with each passing day in the gynaecologic surgery field as in all surgical fields. Laparoscopic surgeries are operations carried out by means of a camera and metal tubes (trocar-port) that are as wide as a pen, wherein said camera and tubes are inserted from a few pre-determined points of the body. In the case that laparoscopic surgeries are carried out in comparison to the wide/large incisions in traditional applications, the recovery of the patient is much faster and the patient can quickly return back to his/her daily life. One of the most important problems of laparoscopic surgery is that the diseased tissue (specimen) that is desired to be taken out of the abdomen of the patient following surgery cannot be taken out of the abdomen region easily. It is almost impossible to especially extract the solid tissue out of the abdominal region. For this reason, devices that are used to break up said tissue or solid masses during their extraction from the abdominal region (abdomen), called morcellator s are used. Laparoscopic morcellators are used when extracting the uterus out of the abdomen following subtotal hysterectomy operations and myomas following myomectomy operations in the gynaecology field, and the material that is to be extracted out is morcellated with a morcellator inside the abdomen before they are taken out of the abdomen. During this morcellation process carried out inside the abdomen via a morcellator there is a risk for the diseased tissue to be scattered uncontrollably inside the abdomen. There is especially a risk of scattering of the myometrial sarcoma following myomectomy operations and a risk of scattering of the uterus sarcoma inside the abdomen following subtotal hysterectomy operations and also a risk of developing parasitic myoma. For this reason, several leading international gynaecologic endoscopy organizations and foremost the FDA, have been publishing declarations advising users of the laparoscopic morcellation method to be careful during usage.
Various methods have been developed in order to extract the specimen out of the abdomen in the known state of the art. Said methods are generally based on placing said specimen inside various enclosed or open bags and morcellating said specimen inside said bags and the extracting said specimens located inside said bags out of the abdomen. However the usage of these materials also extends the time of the operation and creates technical complications. During morcellating procedures carried out with bags that are not enclosed, it is difficult to insert said bags into the abdomen as large bags are used most of the time. It is a difficult procedure to suitably position these large sized bags inside the abdomen and to receive the specimen into the bag from the opening of the bag and such procedures require advanced surgical ability and experience. Moreover there is still a risk of scattering of the disease inside the abdomen when morcellation is carried out inside a non-enclosed bag, similar to the risk of scattering when a bag is not used. It is a difficult and complex procedure to seal the opening of the bag inside the abdomen following the morcellation process and to extract the bag out of the abdomen. The difficulties in carrying out the morcellation application inside an enclosed bag are as follows;
1. Large sized bags are used and it is difficult to insert said bags into the abdomen,
2. Advanced surgical ability and experience is required in order to open the mouth of the bag following its insertion into the abdomen and to receive the specimen inside the bag,
3. The monitoring of the process via different ports using different sized laparoscopic cameras when receiving the specimen inside the bag makes the process more complicated and the process of changing the cameras extend the duration time of the surgical procedure,
4. The opening of the bag is closed after the specimen is received into the bag and different cameras are needed when extracting the bag out of the abdomen,
5. After the bag whose mouth is positioned outside of the abdomen is inflated, the bag needs to be pierced with a different trocar inside the abdomen and the trocar needs to be inserted therein, and as the camera is located inside the bag during this process, said process is carried out in a half blind state and said piercing procedure creates a risk of intraabdominal injury inside the abdominal space,
6. After the bag is pierced with a different trocar and said trocar is inserted therein, it is mandatory to use this single type trocar and the bag is required to be clamped between the trochar and the abdominal wall.
7. Following this stage, the camera is changed and the morcellation process is carried out, after the morcellation process, a different camera is used when the bag is being extracted out of the abdomen; precautions need to be taken at this exact moment when the bag is being extracted out of the abdomen in order to prevent the scattering of the specimen or fluid material from the pierced section of the bag where the trocar had been inserted. The complexity of the process is increased as all of said procedures need to be carried out simultaneously.

Following this stage, the organ or diseased tissue that is to be taken out of the abdomen shall remain inside the abdomen at a free state. The specimen (S) that is no longer attached to an organ or tissue, is received into the laparoscopic enclosed morcellation bag (1) and the process to extract the bag out of the abdomen (A) is started. At least three ports (P) having a diameter of 5mm is inserted at the abdominal region in order to carry out the laparoscopic surgical operation, and the diameter of the middle port is expanded up to 12- 15mm in order to first of all insert the laparoscopic enclosed morcellation bag (1) subject to the invention and then the camera (C) into the abdomen (A). The bag is inserted into the abdomen (A) through the skin incision opened by means of an elastic metal apparatus and the opening (3) is opened. The specimen (S) is inserted into the body (2) via the open mouth section (3). The protrusions (5) that are provided to pass the morcellator (M) and other laparoscopic instruments into the body (2) are extended out from the abdomen (A) via the ports (P) using metal instruments and the closed ends that extend out of the abdomen (A) are cut off thereby providing channels that reach into the body (2). At this stage C02 gas is fed inside the body and an artificial volume is created in which the morcellation process shall be carried out. Once the morcellation procedure is completed, the lumen of the protrusion (5) through which the morcellator (M) is passed into the bag (1) shall be sealed off. Following the sealing off of the lumen of the protrusion (5) through which the morcellator (M) is passed into the bag (1), the bag (1) and the tissue parts, fluid and blood located inside the bag are extracted out of the abdomen (A) from the skin incision that corresponds to the belly button.
As the laparoscopic enclosed morcellation bag (1) is silicon based, it shall open on its own once it is inserted into the abdomen (A). Once the latex based inflatable bag (1) is opened, the tissue/mass that is desired to be received through the opening (3) shall be placed into the bag (1). The laparoscopic enclosed morcellation bag (1) can be produced from a latex, nonoxynol-9, lambistic polyurethane, poliisopropylene material.
The laparoscopic enclosed morcellation bag (1) subject to the invention shall be inserted into the abdomen (A) through the trocar incision section. The morcellation bag (1) that is received into the abdomen (A) easily through the trocar incision point, having a small size before being inserted into the abdomen (A) shall be inflated after the specimen (S) inside the abdomen (A) is received into the bag, by means of its flexible inflatable structure different to the traditional applications and by this means the sufficient volumetric area for the morcellation shall be obtained following inflation of the bag.
The size of the morcellation bag (1) shall shrink again after the gas inside the bag is discharged following the morcellation procedure and therefore the bag shall be able to be extracted easier out of the abdomen (A) in comparison to traditional applications.
The laparoscopic enclosed morcellation bag (1) subject to the invention comprises 3-4 protrusions (5) shaped like fingers that extend out of the outer surface of the bag, and show continuity with the content of the bag (1). After the morcellation bag (1) is inserted into the abdomen (A), the mouth of the bag inside the abdomen (A) shall open and the specimen (S) shall be received into the bag. The protrusions (5) located on the morcellation bag (1) shall be grasped with laparoscopic instruments and shall be extracted out of the abdomen (A) from the skin incision points. Similarly the opening (3) is also extracted out of the abdomen via laparoscopic grasping tools. The opening (3) taken out of the abdomen (A) shall be opened and the camera (C) and the port (P) that is passed through shall be passed over said opening (3). The bag (1) is inflated with air and the camera (C) is inserted into the bag by means of a port (P) that has been placed inside the bag (1) that has been inflated. The top section of the protrusion (5) into which the morcellator (M) shall be inserted through is cut off, where the morcellator bag shall be taken out of the abdomen (A) using said protrusions (5) which resemble fingers and, the morcellator (M) is inserted into the body (2) of the morcellator bag (1) via the finger like protrusions (5). If necessary, one of the protrusions (5) resembling a finger shall be taken out of the abdomen (A) from the skin incision and a different laparoscopic instrument (L) can be inserted into the body (2) from the cut off end of the protrusion similar to the insertion process of the morcellator (M).
At this stage the specimen (S), camera (C) and the morcellator (M) is located inside the bag (1). Therefore a second artificial volume shall be formed inside the abdomen and the specimen (S) shall be morcellated under direct optical observation and shall be extracted out of the abdomen (A).
Small tissue parts and fluid waste shall remain inside the bag (1) following the morcellation procedure. The bag shall be extracted out of the abdomen (A) following the morcellation procedure and the open end of the protrusion (5) into which the morcellator (M) had been inserted, shall be sealed with a suture. As a result spillage dissemination and/or fluid dissemination or the passage of tissue pieces into the abdomen (A) during the extraction of the morcellation bag (1) out of the abdomen (A) is prevented.
Finally the air inside the body (2) is discharged over the camera (C) port (P) and the size of the morcellation bag (1) is then shrunk such that the bag can be easily re-extracted out of the trochar incision point. The camera port (P) and the camera (C) is extracted out of the abdomen (A), and the morcellation bag (1) is pulled out of the abdomen (A) through the skin incisions by gripping the opening (3) of the bag. First of all the body (2) sections and then the protrusions (5) of the morcellation bag (1) shall be extracted out of the abdomen (A). As the cut off ends of the protrusions (5) shall be sealed with a suture, it is prevented for fluids and/or small tissue parts to scatter or leak into the abdomen (A) from said ends that had been cut off.
The laparoscopic enclosed morcellation bag (1) subject to the invention makes it easier to extract the solid surgical specimen (S) located in the abdomen (A) during especially gynaecologic laparoscopic surgical operations out of said abdomen (A) and also makes the laparoscopic morcellation procedure carried out during the extraction process easier. Moreover the contact of the diseased section from which the specimen (S) is taken, with the abdomen (A) and the scattering of said disease into the abdomen (A) during the morcellation procedure is prevented. The elimination of this problem which is one of the basic problems of traditional applications and one of the issues that is emphasized frequently by international health organizations create reliability following surgical operations. The retracting of the solid specimen (S) out of the abdomen (A) during laparoscopic surgery, is usually carried out especially during myomectomy and subtotal hysterectomy operations.
The laparoscopic enclosed morcellation bag (1) subject to the invention has two basic differences that distinguish the invention in comparison to traditional applications. The first one of these differences is that the morcellation bag (1) is produced from an inflatable and expandable elastic material. As a result although the bag is produced to have a small size, the bag can have a much larger volume after it is inflated inside the abdomen (A) during a laparoscopic surgery. Secondly protrusions (5) shaped like a channel having closed ends that extend outwards from the body (2) of the morcellation bag are provided. These protrusions (5) are taken out of the abdomen (A) from the ports (P) after the morcellation bag (1) is inflated and the ends of the protrusions are cut off thereby acting as channels which allow the insertion of laparoscopic instruments (L) and morcellators (M) into the body (2) and in turn into the abdomen (A). The breaking up of the specimen (S) that is received inside the body (2) by means of the morcellation bag (1) subject to the invention is carried out inside the body of the bag, and following morcellation, the morcellation bag can be extracted out of the abdomen (A) without the risk of dissemination of a tissue part or leakage of fluid into the abdominal (A) region. Therefore it is also prevented for any kind of diseased tissue to be dispersed or scattered into the abdomen. The specimen (S) is morcellated in a closed medium by means of the laparoscopic enclosed morcellation bag (1) subject to the invention and the specimen is extracted out of the abdomen (A) by means of the bag and this procedure can be carried out in a shorter period of time without extending the duration of the operation in comparison to traditional similar applications. As a result laparoscopic morcellation can be performed easily and faster. As the procedure can be carried out inside an enclosed bag, the risk of scattering of a diseased specimen (S) into the abdomen is also prevented. In conclusion as it is easier to extract the specimen (S) by means of a laparoscopic surgical method, it shall be possible to perform laparoscopic operations in situations where normally traditional operations would be carried out and the number of patients who can benefit from laparoscopic surgery shall increase.
