Containment bags for laparoscopic morcellation
Hysterectomies and myomectomies are among the most common surgical procedures performed in the field of gynaecology. The minimally invasive use of laparoscopic morcellation makes it possible to avoid a larger incision for tissue containment.
However, a potential risk is intraoperative tissue dispersion in the abdominal cavity. Therefore, a suitable containment and morcellation bag should be used to collect fluids and small residual tissue in an enclosed system.
The complete solution
for in-bag morcellation from BOWA MEDICAL
In-bag morcellation ensures optimised safety during laparoscopic hysterectomy and myomectomy. With MetraLoop, MetraBagpro and ERGO 300, BOWA MEDICAL offers the complete solution for morcellation of benign tissue in an enclosed system.
Not only safe, but economical too: The BOWA MEDICAL in-bag system offers impressively low consumption costs.

From complete system introduction to user training
The FDA recommends the use of an enclosed system
At the end of December 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) published a definitive recommendation guidance on laparoscopic morcellation for gynaecological procedures*.
The FDA recommends that morcellation for gynaecological procedures is performed only in an enclosed system (tissue containment system).. *To Safety Communication
The MetraBagpro in-bag system from BOWA MEDICAL is one example of a suitable system.
Morcellator ERGO 300
Precise morcellation and extraction of tissue in laparoscopic procedures
For morcellation and extraction of tissue and for removing myomas or the uterus during laparoscopic procedures in surgery or gynaecology. To ensure that each procedure can be tailored exactly to individual requirements, BOWA MEDICAL offers the
ERGO 300 morcellator system with various application sets in the working diameters (protective and cutting tube) of 12 mm and 15 mm.
Protective tube, obturator and cutting tube (blade)
Different versions.
Vario foot switch
with 3 m cable. Precise control of the cutting speed.
Gear unit with seal unit
Torque with uniform, quiet running.
Tissue removal
by morcellation with protective tube or with trocar sleeve
- Removal of myomas
- Morcellation and extraction of tissue
- Uterus removal
MetraBagpro
Containment bag for controlled morcellation in an enclosed system
With the MetraBag morcellation bag, BOWA MEDICAL offers the solution for controlled tissue morcellation in an enclosed system. The morcellation bag prevents tissue dispersion during containment of the excised material in hysterectomy and myomectomy.
Drawstring
For easy unfolding of the bag during the procedure and easy positioning of the working port
Bag volume of 3.5 litres
In-bag morcellation, even for large excised specimens
Working port on the left
Access for standard morcellation assistance instrument
Morcellator Port
up to 15 mm
Working port, left
Orientation aid and point of reference for mobilising the bag
With large self-opening access to retrieve and orientate the specimen
GENEROUS WORKING SPACE
due to CO2 insufflation of the containment bag.
Transparent Material
provides a clear view of the surrounding tissue in the abdominal cavity.
COLOUR-CODING
of the ports facilitates optimal positioning of the bag.
MetraLOOP
Precise loop system for supracervical hysterectomy (LASH)
- Reusable instrument section for more sustainability
- Disposable MetraLOOP loops for consistent cutting performance
- Two loop sizes (ø 100 and ø 175 mm) for large and small uteruses
- Optimised for BOWA ARC 400 MetraLOOP® mode
- Can be operated using standard HF generators
What our customers and experts say:
The main motivation is to leave a clean surgical field and to avoid postoperative implants, to minimise pain stimuli and not to provoke adhesions due to residual tissue. With routine use of the containment system, no time is lost. There is no need to aspirate coagulum and blood debris or to collect residual tissue, thus offsetting the time required for bag placement.
In this regard, it must always be kept in mind that minimally invasive surgical techniques can be offered and further developed for the benefit of patients.
