Clinical Application
Engineered to excise a precise cylindrical core of soft tissue, this punch is used to obtain biopsy specimens and to remove small cutaneous or subcutaneous lesions. The 5 mm cutting diameter is suitable for diagnostic dermatologic biopsies, small lesion excisions, and procedures requiring controlled tissue coring where a clean circular margin is desired. The extended 20 cm shaft provides reach when access is limited or when working within deeper pockets or confined operative fields.
Design & Configuration
The punch-down configuration orients the cutting edge for a perpendicular coring motion toward the shaft axis. This geometry helps the operator maintain a consistent cutting trajectory and controlled depth during specimen removal. The extended length increases working distance from the hand to the operative site, improving access in deeper cavities or when additional reach is needed without compromising control. A defined 5 mm cutting tip delivers repeatable circular cores useful for histologic analysis or targeted lesion removal.
