The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recently published an updated committee opinion regarding morcellation of presumed uterine leiomyoma.1 The key points included in the recommendations are careful preoperative patient evaluation; patient counseling regarding risks and benefits of manual or electromechanical morcellation; the increased morbidity associated with open procedures; and, importantly, the recommendation for shared decision-making with each patient based on their individual medical condition, goals of treatment, risk of malignancy, and personal preferences.
