Abstract
A tissue specimen retrieval device includes a housing, an outer shaft extending distally from the housing, an end effector assembly extending distally from the outer shaft in a deployed position, a tissue specimen bag supported on the end effector assembly and including an open end extending between proximal and distal end portions of the end effector assembly, a cinch loop disposed about the open end of the tissue specimen bag, and a distal cinch tab. The distal cinch tab is disposed at the distal end portion of the end effector assembly and extends from the open end of the tissue specimen bag. The distal cinch tab is operably coupled to the cinch loop such that pulling the distal cinch tab distally relative to the cinch loop constricts the cinch loop about the open end of the tissue specimen bag to cinch the open end of the tissue specimen bag closed.
