Abstract
A flexible bag is introduced into the abdominal cavity to remove larger portions of tissue from the abdominal cavity through a threaded casing introduced into the abdominal wall. The bag features a side opening through which the tissue can be moved into the bag. The end opening of the bag remains extracorporeal to the threaded casing. After pulling out the bag the side opening is located outside of the threaded casing and the tissue is tightly enclosed by the portion of the bag remaining in the abdominal cavity and is accessible for cutting up the tissue form outside, through the threaded casing.
