A surgical apparatus of the present disclosure includes a wound retractor having a specimen bag attached thereto. The wound retractor includes a proximal ring, a distal ring, and a film extending therebetween. The specimen bag is attached to the distal ring of the wound retractor. Kits of the present disclosure include the surgical apparatus and a wound guard. Where the tissue specimen to be removed from the patient is too large for passing through an incision or wound, the wound guard is introduced into a lumen of the wound retractor. Mechanical devices such as scalpels or morcellators may then be introduced into the lumen of the wound guard and manipulated adjacent the wound guard to break up the tissue specimen without damaging the specimen bag or wound retractor. Methods for using the surgical apparatus and kits of the present disclosure are also provided.
