6.2.1
Option 1
: Morcellation with protective tube
1. Hysterectomy
Select the procedure for the hysterectomy in accordance with current medical standards.
2. Inserting cutting tube
Make sure that the Obturator is inside the cutting tube.
Make sure that the protective tube covers the blade on the cutting tube (set position to «
NO CUT
»; «
PROTECTED
» is
also shown on the black ring between the gear unit and protective tube).
Insert Morcellator (with Obturator) into an existing percutaneous access under visual control (endoscopy).
3. Using cutting tube
To use the cutting tube, rotate the protective tube to
uncover the blade of the cutting tube (unprotected
“CUT”
position is displayed).
To cover the blade again, rotate the protective tube (pro-
tected
“NO CUT”
position is displayed;
“PROTECTED”
is
also shown on the black ring be-tween the gear unit and
protective tube).
4. Inserting gripper
Pull the Obturator out of the protective tube.
Close the proximal opening of the gear unit with the
thumbs immediately.
Insert gripper carefully through the proximal opening of
the gear unit.
5. Removing tissue
Grip the tissue with the gripper under good visual control
(endoscopy).
The handle lock is set.
Start the motor of the Morcellator set.
Pull the tissue towards the rotating blade for morcellation
with the gripper.
As the cut progresses pull the gripper with the tis-sue
further out of the Morcellator.
Carefully pull the complete gripper with the separated tis-
sue out of the Morcellator and the patient. The retracted
mouth must not touch the blade of the cutting tube.
Repeat the process until the tissue has been completely
removed.
Make sure that the proximal opening of the seal unit is
closed immediately with the thumb when there is no
instrument in the Morcellator to prevent large quantities
of gas from escaping.
