ABSTRACT:
A morcellator device having an inner tube with a cutting edge reciprocatingly mounted within an outer tube. The outer tube has a distal opening with a sharpened surface for receiving tissue therein so that the inner tube may slide distally severing the tissue caught inside the outer tube. Both tubes have barbs mounted so as to project into the lumen of the inner tube which allow the cut tissue to move proximally, but inhibits it's movement distally.
