What would a grossing table typically feature following a morcellated hysterectomy?

After a morcellated hysterectomy, the grossing table would typically feature morsels of the uterus and cervix. During this surgical procedure, the uterus and cervix are often fragmented or morcellated into smaller pieces to allow for easier removal through small incisions. This method is particularly useful in laparoscopic procedures where space is limited. Therefore, the presence of these morcelled tissues is expected as they are the direct outcome of the surgical technique employed.

In this context, while choices like a small piece of ileum, the pelvic bone, or even just the whole uterus and cervix may seem relevant, they do not accurately represent the typical findings on a grossing table after a morcellated hysterectomy. The focus is specifically on the remnants of the morcellated uterine and cervical tissue that have been processed for pathologic evaluation.
