Tissue morcellation systems are surgical tools designed to mechanically break down and remove tissue during minimally invasive procedures, such as laparoscopic surgeries. Clinically, they are primarily used to fragment and extract benign or malignant growths—like fibroids or tumors—through small incisions, reducing the need for larger open surgeries.
These systems are typically regulated as surgical instruments, often requiring compliance with safety and performance standards before market entry. They are commonly supplied as reusable or single-use kits, depending on the design, and may include components like handpieces, control units, and foot pedals for operation.
