Starting time of specimen retrieval and ending time of specimen retrieval was noted in each patient. Salient findings: On an average time required for specimen retrieval with using laparoscopic specimen retrieval bag was 3 minute 25 second and average time required for specimen retrieval without using laparoscopic specimen retrieval bag was 10 minute 52 second.
