Olympus PK Morcellator in PneumoLinerOlympus PK Morcellator in PneumoLinerLaparoscopic Supracervical Hysterectomy (LSH) or Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy (TLH) using the Olympus PK Morcellator in PneumoLiner containment device
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The safety of using the PK MORCELLATOR in conjunction with the PneumoLiner containment device for contained cutting and extracting tissue during laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy (LSH) or total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH).End of study - approximately two years

The safety of using the PK MORCELLATOR within the PneumoLiner containment bag for cutting and extracting tissue during LSH or TLH procedure will be determined by the probability of failure during in-bag morcellation procedure.

* Failure is defined as "disruption of the isolation bag (using dye leak testing) or visible tissue dissemination".

* Patient is defined "success" if no failure was detected as a result of the procedure.

* Study safety success will be declared if no more than 1 failure (bag rapture) will be observed in 140 procedures.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Intra- or post-operative complicationsEnd of study - approximately two years

Intra or post complications rate (e.g. urinary, intestinal or nerve injury)

Hospitalization lengthEnd of study - approximately two years

Hospitalization length will be measured by days

Mean procedure timeEnd of study - approximately two years

Mean procedure time will be measured by hour/minutes.

Estimated blood loss during operationEnd of study - approximately two years

Blood loss during operation will be measured by volume (mL)

Post-operative painEnd of study - approximately two years

Post-operative pain will be measured by Visual Analog Score - VAS

Specimen weightEnd of study - approximately two years

Specimen will be measured by weight (gr)

The efficacy of using PK MORCELLATOR in conjunction with the PneumoLiner containment deviceEnd of study - approximately two years

Ease of use of the PK MORCELLATOR in conjunction with the PneumoLiner containment device for LSH or TLH. Ease of use will be measured by designated Satisfaction Questionnaire.
