1 General information
1.1 Indications
Morcellator set for morcellation and extraction of tissue and for removing myomas or the uterus dur-
ing laparoscopic procedures in surgery and gynaecology.
1.2 Principle
The ERGO 300 - Morcellator is a control unit for the BOWA Morcellator for use in morcellation and
extraction of tissue. A rotating cylindrical tube with a blade at the distal end is inserted through an
abdominal cavity that has been enlarged by an Insufflator. The tissue that is to be removed is guided
to the cutting tube by a gripper, cut off and removed through the tube.
This manual describes three different options for removing tissue by a laparoscopic procedure.
Option 1: Tissue removal by morcellation with protective tube.
Instruments (gripper) are inserted through a protective tube sealed by a valve system. The valve can
be covered by a thumb for removing the gripper from the sealed protective tube to prevent gas loss.
Option 2: Tissue removal by morcellation with Trocar Cannula.
Instruments (cutter tube, gripper) are inserted through the Trocar Cannula. The Trocar Cannula con-
tains a valve that prevents gas loss when withdrawing the instruments.
Option 3: Tissue removal (myectomy) with myoma drill through the Trocar Cannula.
The myoma drill is inserted through the Morcellator (protective tube or Trocar Cannula). The Trocar
Cannula and the protective tube can be used with or without a cutting tube. No gas loss after re-
moval of instruments with the Trocar Cannula, minimum gas loss during removal from the protective
tube, sealing unit
can be sealed with the thumb.
1.3 Contraindications
Do not use the Morcellator for the following:
• Treatment of malignant tumors
• Treatment of vascularized tissue
• Preparation of tissue
1.4 Medical application
