Specimen retrieval bags consists of a long cylindrical tube and ripstop nylon bag that encapsulates and contains specimens for removal from the body cavity. Specimen retrieval bags are used in the laparoscopic (abdomen and pelvic) surgical procedures. Retrieval bags collect specimens such as adnexal cysts, benign cysts, or other tissue masses. These bags are designed to reduce contamination of the abdominal cavity during surgeries. These tear-resistant high-quality bags are mainly made of nylon, and is coated by polyurethane. The specimen retrieval bag has an open end, closed end, and longitudinal axis for the collection of biological materials. It is a single- use surgical instrument. Specimen retrieval is the process of temporarily retaining and removing specimen from patient body during the course of laparoscopic surgeries. It is designed to minimize contamination of abdominal cavity by isolating the specimen, and improving patient safety and patient outcome. Specimen retrieval is used in various surgeries, especially in minimal invasive surgeries and laparoscopic surgeries, cardiovascular surgeries, and others. These specimen retrieval bags are of different of sizes such as 5 mm, 10 mm, 20 mm, and others.
Market Dynamics
Increasing prevalence of gastrointestinal and endometrial cancer, gall bladder stones, and hernia are expected to boost demand for specimen retrieval bag over the forecast period. For instance, in December 2020, according to the data published by World Cancer Research Fund International, a non-profit cancer organization, endometrial (also known as womb or corpus uteri) cancer is the 6th most commonly occurring cancer in women and the 15th most common cancer overall. There were more than 417,000 new cases of endometrial cancer in 2020 in U.S.
