Accessories for laparoscopic operations can be assigned to a plastic container 2 in such a way that an opening, formed outside the abdominal wall 4, of a covering film 10 can be coupled in sealing fashion on to a closable and openable end of the plastic container 2. Part of the plastic container 2 is located intraabdominally, the opening of the plastic container 2 projecting outwards from the abdominal wall 4. It is thereby possible to protect incisions in the abdominal wall reliably from infectious and malignant tissue. <IMAGE>
