Technical Specifications

Material	Typically made from high-quality, surgical-grade stainless steel (e.g., Austenitic steel O7Cr19Ni9) to ensure durability, corrosion resistance, and repeated use.
Finish	Often have a satin finish to reduce glare in the operating room.
Reusability & Sterilization	Designed to be fully autoclavable and reusable, requiring thorough cleaning and sterilization before and after each procedure.
Design	Ergonomically designed with features like fenestrated handles or specific tip configurations (e.g., serrated jaws) to provide a secure grip, minimize user fatigue, and prevent soft tissue damage.
Laparoscope & Camera System	A thin tube with a video camera (often HD or 3D) is inserted to project magnified images onto a monitor, providing optimal visualization.
Trocars/Cannulas	Small diameter (e.g., 5–12 mm) ports inserted through the abdominal wall to guide instruments into the abdominal cavity, which is inflated with CO2 gas.
Laparoscopic Hand Instruments	Long, slender instruments for specific functions:
Graspers/Holding Forceps	Traumatic and atraumatic forceps (e.g., myoma screws for traction).
Cutting Instruments	Curved scissors, high-frequency scissors, or devices like the Harmonic scalpel (ultrasonic energy) or LigaSure (bipolar vessel sealing system) that cut and coagulate simultaneously.
Needle Holders	Specialized long needle holders for endosuturing with intra or extracorporeal knot tying.
Uterine Manipulator	An instrument inserted into the uterus via the vagina to move the uterus and provide clear visibility of the resection level.
Morcellator	An electrically powered device (10mm, 15mm, or 20mm diameter) used in some cases to cut the uterus into small pieces for removal through the small incisions. Note: The use of power morcellators is controversial for certain conditions due to the risk of spreading malignant tissue.
Energy Systems	Bipolar and monopolar electrocoagulation devices and generators (e.g., Erbe VIO system, BOWA ARC 400) are used for hemostasis and cutting.
