Abstract:
A specimen retrieval system for easier tissue removal during endoscopic surgery. The devices include a specimen tube with a main tube, and a mechanism for pulling and everting the distal end of the tube into the tube, or a side channel provided within the tube. The mechanism may include a tether fixed to the distal edge of the tube, or a grasper operable to grasp the distal edge of the tube.

Claim (Index 44):
A specimen retrieval system comprising:\n a collapsible tube having a distal end and a proximal end, said distal end being open, said tube having a first inflatable channel running longitudinally along the tube, said inflatable channel having a distal end and a proximal end, wherein the inflatable channel terminates distally at a point proximal to the distal end of the tube, thereby defining a skirt at the distal end of the tube; a tether having a distal end and a proximal end, with the distal end of the tether secured to the distal end of the tube, and running proximally through the tube to the proximal end of the tube, wherein said tether is operable to pull the distal end the tube into an everted configuration relative to the remainder of the tube.
